Are you suggesting that there is a place called the internet, and that you could go there?

Do you suggest there is a place called the mail or the telephone, and you could go there? Don't be a retard. Whatever you do using the internet happens for real the same way whatever you say on the telephone is said for real and whatever you send by mail gets sent for real.

Oh, but you consider "the telephone" to be a place?

/U/x0x7 gets my point.
Do you consider "the mail" a place that you can go to?
Have you ever been to "the telephone"?
That is the point. They're means of communication. Mail in the fully analog era before electricity, then with electricity and analog devices, the telephone and in the computer era, we have the internet.

That is the point.
Actually, your original point was that the internet is a real place.
The internet is intangible. It is not a destination.
It exists as a conceptual constructs with information that you can access (for various purposes), but it is not a place that you can go to.
