What Does the Internet Weigh?

The video explores the intriguing question of how much the Internet would weigh. It explains that the Internet's mass is derived from the electrons that transmit data, such as emails and videos, across servers. Although electrons are minuscule, their collective mass can be calculated using standard form and powers.
