The messed up thing about this is that the original image was talking about some random project being maintained by one person in their spare time. This is about a $69 billion company
Mr. Munroe probably didn't intend it, but the diagram also shows the problem with monopolies, duopolies and similar concentrations of stuff. The original design for the Internet was something that was so distributed that it could survive even if some key nodes were nuked. But, the modern Internet depends way too much on just a few companies: cloudflare, google, meta, amazon, etc.
Nice.
