gtw@mastodon.nz - An #ITU study https://www.itu.int/itu-d/reports/statistics/2024/11/10/ff24-internet-traffic/ reports that we transferred over 7 zettabytes of #Internet traffic in 2024. However, the authors do not describe what all those data actually were.
Therefore, I have performed extensive research to classify every byte, and I can now share this summary of the purposes of all the year's traffic.
Happy New Year!

This is why we don't really need data centers. No actual content is being stored.

The chart is intended to be satirical.
But seriously - that's a lot of bytes!
