The internet is not a big truck. You can’t simply dump things on it.
It’s a series of tubes.
Major technical problems could become a regular occurrence for website users because the internet is running out of space, experts have warned.
An online breakdown caused chaos on Tuesday, costing the economy millions of pounds in lost trade and effectively closing access to a number of huge websites.
Online auctioneer eBay was out of action for most of the day, with buyers and sellers inundating the site with complaints about lost business after being unable to log onto their accounts.
Hundreds of thousands of users were unable to log on and the auction site was flooded with traders demanding compensation.
The problem is understood to have been caused by the crucial ‘nuts and bolts’ of the internet – called the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP).
Internet companies and large networks use this ‘route map’ – consisting of hundreds of thousands of complex paths through the web – to send information to each other.
When visiting a website, users rely on machines called routers to remember how to navigate trusted routes through the ever-expanding internet.
But older routers are finding it difficult to manage with newer technology – such as smartphones and tablets which have drastically increased the number of people online and the time spent online.
They have imposed a huge volume of extra traffic onto the web, leaving some routers struggling with lack of memory and processing power.
Some machines impose an arbitrary upper limit of 512,000 different routes, a number that experts say is out of date.
The system is similar to the human brain being unable to cope with remembering ‘all the back streets’ on a long car journey, said Dr Joss Wright, a research fellow at the Oxford Internet Institute.
These people are massively invading this world of the internet.
This isn’t your own personal internet.
