Internet and Species-Instinct

At its inception, and still widely, access to the Internet requires a fixed location, i. e. where there is a land-line.  Still, in merely two decades, access has been mobilized, via Wi-Fi, and, especially, the Smart Phone.  So, at this rate, the actualization of what hitherto has been in the purview of speculative fiction--chip implants--can eliminate even those devices for Internet connectivity.  Then, just as artificial instruments have been extensions of human biological functions, e. g. the fork of the fingers, the calculator of the brain, etc., the Internet may become more recognizable as an extension of the species-instinct of Humans.  As is the case with other instruments, this technological development would serve to more effectively accomplish the purposes of the original--to organize with greater versatility the members of the Species.
