The term is quite over used in my opinion, it is very often used in hyperbole. Whether it is in terms of popularity and driving traffic to a website or a threat said to break the Internet, it doesn’t seem to live up to the meaning of the term.

Yeah, let a nuclear bomb go off in any American city with over 50,000 residents.
That would probably do it
At that point, the EMP would wipe out some important components of the Internet as well as overloading whatever is not directly affected.
LOL, the internet was invented specifically to route communications around nuclear bomb blasts.
You got me wondering though, things have changed a lot since DARPANET. Taking out Amazon US-EAST-1 would leave a massive hole in the internet.
