Are you supposed to capitalize the word "Internet"?

Maritza Ebanks: The answer is b.

Madge Voice: Yes, a lot of communications studies papers capitalize the word "Internet"

Ramon Dahlheimer: It was correct to capitalize it as a proper noun initially, and some organizations still do. As it is generally perceived today, however, as a generic medium of mass communication (rather than a specific set of protocols) the internet has become socially and linguistically normalized, rendering it unnecessary to continue to capitalize.

Cuc Gire: Actually yeah.The Internet is Place, Just like a state.It's a digital state you could say.And like a state you would capitalize.
