While the world is captivated by AI and quantum computing, a more fundamental transformation is underway: the internet itself is changing.For decades, the internet thrived as a global, open, and interconnected network. Today, that model is being challenged by geopolitical rivalry, national regulations, security concerns, and the growing power of technology companies. Many experts now argue that the era of a single global internet is coming to an end. Drawing on firsthand experience in internet policy, governance, and industry leadership, the author takes readers inside the forces reshaping the digital world. This timely and accessible book explains what is driving the fragmentation of the internet, who stands to gain or lose, and what the future may hold for businesses, governments, and citizens alike.
