Albeit enigmatic to most people, the internet is disappearing phenomenon is a phenomenon that has emerged in the 21st century and is characterized by the removal of an inordinate amount of webpages and content from the internet. "A study from the Pew Research Center" not only discovered "that a quarter of all webpages that existed between 2013 and 2023 found to be no longer accessible", but also "revealed that 38% of pages that existed in 2013 alone have now been lost". The study also discovered that "23% of news pages studied were found to include at least one broken link". The study also ascertained that a "staggering 54% of Wikipedia pages included a reference link that no longer exists". The internet is disappearing phenomenon is a phenomenon that is characterized by the partial disappearance of the internet. Not all content on the internet is poised to remain archived on the internet for decades on end. When content is jettisoned from the internet, it is no longer accessible to its target audience who otherwise may have been interested in viewing the removed content if it was accessible to its target audience on the internet. When content is jettisoned from the internet, it is revealing of the longevity of the content on the internet. The longevity of the content on the internet is prone to ephemerality since it can abruptly be removed from the internet at any moment if a company decides to delete the content from its website. When content is jettisoned from the internet, it contributes to changing the internet. When content is jettisoned from the internet, it also further winnows down the remaining volume of old content on the internet. It stands to preponderantly reason that the internet is not an impregnable bastion for old content.
