On any given day it connects roughly 20 million users worldwide. The Web refers to a body of information - an abstract space of knowledge available via the Internet, while the Internet refers to the physical side of the global network, a giant mass of cables and computers. There is no single governing body that controls what happens on the Internet. The networks within different countries are funded and managed locally according to local policies. The World-Wide Web uses the Internet to transmit hypermedia documents between computer users internationally.
People are responsible for the documents they author and make available publicly on the Web.
Via the Internet, hundreds of thousands of people around the world are making information available from their homes, schools, and workplaces. It's possible to use World-Wide Web software without having to use the Internet. But Internet access is necessary in order to make full use of and participate in the World-Wide Web.
