That might be true of content providers but all Internet traffic traverses peering locations in every major city. Hundreds of organizations including ISPs, major companies, universities, etc. connect to each other and pass traffic. For example, both Coca-Cola and Home Depot connect through a building in downtown Atlanta. Georgia Tech, the University of GA, Comcast, AT&T and hundreds of other organizations all connect together in that building.
To shut down or control the Internet it would be necessary to control all those buildings and their main routers.
Now, I absolutely agree that anti-American globalists who hate us have too much control over the content we consume, but I wouldn't say they own the plumbing and the pipes.
The internet is a very big place you know?
Yep and in the US it is totally owned and controlled by anti-American, globalists who hate you and your free speech.
