It is one atmosphere, one Internet, but every group does its own thing

Even if NOAA were perfect, many world satellite groups are not working together on the Internet. Everyone makes and maintains their own and Internet users see too many variations. If all the traffic signs in a country were different, it is chaos. All the weather and climate data signs and instructions on sites on the web are different. Yet it is just one atmosphere, one Internet.  Richard Collins, The Internet Foundation
