Eeer I didn't say the "internet" exists as that would imply that there's
only one internet.  There are many.

See:
http://www.dictionary.com/cgi-bin/dict.pl?term=internet
(the 3rd and 4th results)
"internet -  <networking> (Note: not capitalised) Any set of networks
interconnected with routers. The Internet is the biggest example of an
internet."

http://www.dictionary.com/cgi-bin/dict.pl?term=intranet
"intranet - A privately maintained computer network that can be accessed
only by authorized persons, especially members or employees of the
organization that owns it."
