Do not "susitate !!!
why would you want to type www. in when you don't have to...
ffs this was hard to watch with him trying to be funny throughout
1. Mom 2. Dad 3. Grandma 4. Grandpa 5. Uncle 6. Aunt 7. Internet service provider (if you don't pay).
Could just type in the IP, or use your own local DNS
The Internet is just connecting to computers to each other then that means that there is not really any way of shutting down internet
Please stop making silly jokes, gets in the way of having a nerdgasm and they are getting annoying. Other than that, i love the rest of your content
the seven dns wonderers of the world
Key I Joes... you mean Keybra?
let’s watch a cool video about people that can turn off the internet. i wonder wh
Nunchuck-wielding fish?
We can live without internet, isn't it?
Turn it off and burn it down!!
Wow, one of those people is from Czech republic. I am proud of my coutry.
My lord you have no idea . your see we are on a brink off something unprecedented humanity are gonna learn everything about his existence and the church and some government going to have problems big ones. Sorry no more ......
Imagine the first 3 numbers are actually 742 and they’re just watching this like 😰
Some might say they are, “the elders of the internet”? If you know, you know
And what would happen if someone were wanting to collect said keys...
No one in China should have a key. I like the idea of Burkina Faso and Trinidad & Tobago. The China and U.S.A. keyholders should probably be moved to more stable less corrupt countries like Botswana, Uruguay, or Australia.
I think this guy is wrong. This is how it is done. althe.info/number/yZ6qfamvqJ6Opcw/video
The seven have been found Fortnite theory confirmed
They actually did something with Google servers I think
Wow! This turned from a boring video into a boring Ad.
Whoa, surprised that one of the key holders is from the Czech Republic (I live here and we’re not so big, so that’s why I’m surprised)
decentralised low earth orbit satellites will provide internet that can't be shut down. look up NXS coin
I will shut down the internet and call the police
I found out about ICANN when I was curious about who owned the internet. I had this question after realizing that people have to pay for domains, so someone had to be getting the money.
DNS is cached. so the Internet would still run for a few hours/days, and as long as none of the servers in the chain of trust to ICANN are compromised, you can still continue to use it. the only problem is when something changes/is compromised, nobody can verify which DNS entry is accurate. in fact, you can even issue new domains etc as long as the TLD is still trusted.
Now I just want to see a heist movie about a group of people stealing the keys and shutting down the internet
Jevil: ICAN DO ANYTHING
1. Parents
2 of them are the Google Brothers and they have been using that key to shut down competition.
**reads title** Wait a second, what if they turn it off while I'm writing this comme-
Wait i think i seen this video on another video
I am Acc gunna sign up for the brick video
im shutting down the internet!!! captcha wait.... fuck!!!!!
I will shut down the internet!!! A.I. :::::: NO YOUR NOT HAL 2000
gamingfun.me/YR5Z20
So no keys for Arabs or Russians...hmm
plot twist: nebula is actually a website to go to space
I'm confused and don't know what just happened but I feel like I need another tinfoil hat.
I like mlp (MyLittlePony) so maybe I could use curiositystream and nebula to teach people about ponies
Key-i-goes????? 😅😂😂😅😂😂😅😅😅😂😂😂😅🤣😂😅😂😂😂😂😂😂😅😂😂😂😃😄😅🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣😅😂🤣😂😂😄😂🤣🤣😂😂😅😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😂😄😂😅🤣😂😅😂😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😆😁😄😄😀😁😁😅🤣😂😅😂🤣😂😂🤣😅😂🤣😅😅😂😂😂😂😅😂😂😅😃🤣😅😅🤣😂😅😂🤣😅😂😂😂😂😅😂😂😂😅😅🤣😂😂😂😅🤣😂😅
I wonder what would happen to e-traders and cryptos if internet is shut down intentionally or fails for at least some days
So if ICANN is the CENTRAL authoriTIE of the internet, then is their really a true DECENTRALIZED (blockchain) alternative?? Since they are the DNS gatekeepers n all

Does this include Shutting down Bitcoin to?

ICANN calls emergency meeting: “Everyone get out your keys” 6 members retrieve their keys That one guy: uh...about that...
Plot twist:I can turn off the internet Nó i cant
I bet Lester is watching this video
Ah great, so it can be turned off
The better not-
They are the Seven Sages
2.5k ppl in actual industry disliked this video mocking people who actually made and support internet infrastructure over how they "don't have friends" (00:50) on that same internet while making money off the site located in internet and chatting with your chick over that same internet is retarded, my man
the guy who was talking: very serious 4:33 SWORD BEAR DUEL
*When your internet goes off when watching this video: P A N I K*
Sooo why did you tell us where they live
I'm sorry but your profile picture just irritates me😂

I prefer the White Pages
Once in ancient time, one uber nerd named Jon Postel single-handledly took this duty alone by himself. That's why,: among many other things crucial to internet like: inventing and maintaining RFC, they called him: *the god of internet.*
Whit all of this stuff on internet today i woudn't be confused if they do that very soon

Assuming that DNSSEC is actually widely implemented, lol
Lolz that aren’t true lol
Please turn off Thé internet
This is some prison break stuff
Actually, Anyone can, you just have to break one of the powerline poles 😂 Or in Australia, leave it to the storm
1/11/2021 we learned who really can shut down the internet... RIP Parler...
Dude they are 14 people. and they cant just go like hipperty hoppity the internet is my property if they would turn it off here an explination from another comment so dont spam me st kids: his video is kinda false. They don’t “hold the keys to the internet” they hold the keys to root name DNS and DNSSEC so if they were to shut it down yes it would be a great pain to have to type in IP adresses instead of names the internet wouldn’t mysteriously vanish all of a sudden

Google wants to have a word with you
Clickbait and inaccurate title. Read: www.icann.org/news/blog/the-problem-with-the-seven-keys
dangnabit! our precious, precious brick knowledge is locked behind a paywall!
No lol. My mom and dad should be included
Love your videos but these dad jokes are so unnecessary

This guy is hilarious
OK, well, I’ll be building “The Hindenbrick” if you need me. Seriously, does anybody have a better name for my Lego Blimp? I really don’t want four minifigs to potentially lose their creation sparks if that thing goes down. Oh, look, a ladybug.....
If we'll have a Thanos of this universe, I bet he'll find these 7 keys.
Reminds me of the Company and their 6 cardholders for “Scylla” on prison break.
is one of the seven my mom
Person 8: Armenian grandma
I comment to help statistics
I can always access a website by its ip address , no key holders needed
Dude, all you have to do is delete internet’s entity file. Simple.
my dad:
"Did u try turning the internet of and on?"

Trump needs to watch this
If they do that, they’d be hell to pay
Lockpicking Lawyer is needed.
No need to turn it off when you can censor it 🤷🏼♂️
Or my favourite tool can also be used to get the key A saw
The Elders of the Internet!
Your videos would be alot better if you didn't spend half the time making stupid jokes.
Hi
Then why can my brother turn of the wifi?

When be funny if they all died at the same time.
Dan Kaminsky in the US.. I see, so is anything in this video real? Bc the "ican" is both what im sitting on right now and part of the title 'return of the ican' on a bootleg star wars shirt i saw on a homeless guy a few years ago that has been popping into my mind the past few days as I wonder if it wasn't a bootleg shirt but another world's time I caught a brief glimpse of that morning. Or is this video the realm flailing silliness at me bc I have the only key and I use it every time I'm not viewing the internet.
