When people say the internet is just a series of tubes, theyāre not too far from the truth. Itās made up of tubes, cables and data centres, which have to sit in enormous, industrial buildings. Like the monstrous ones internet monolith Google makes use of.

And no, youāre not alone in thinking they look like something from Mirrorās Edge
