The Internet IS a *set* of physical things that can be blown up by bombs.
However, where there used to be about a dozen places where you’d need to plant a substantial bomb to wreck the Internet, while now there are hundreds you’d need to hit simultaneously to affect most users. It isn’t even really feasible to figure out where those places all are, because the live interconnections are so complex and the fallback links are entirely invisible normally.

Faster Remainder by Direct Computation: Applications to Compilers and Software Libraries
On common processors, integer multiplication is many times faster than integer division. Dividing a numerator n by a divisor d is mathematically equivalent to multiplication by the inverse of the divisor (n / d = n x 1/d). If the divisor is known in advance---or if repeated integer divisions will be performed with the same divisor---it can be beneficial to substitute a less costly multiplication for an expensive division. Currently, the remainder of the division by a constant is computed from…
