I need proof that most online servers are NOT owned by "big buisness".... help me? Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

For a paper... I need SOME source(internet being preferable, books are okay) that testifies that the majority of servers online, either now, or in the past are NOT owned by massive international conglomerates or american super corporations.

I suppose it's true, but what's the relevance? Most of the content and the routing is on/via a relatively small number of very big servers.

It's long and complicated but arguing that big buisness does not own the majority of servers, are important. There is an actual chance my proffesor reads this board (HI! *waves*) so I need a LEGITAMIE source.

Define "big business"... most servers are owned by business by definition

Servers or websites?

A server can have multiple websites, while a gigantic website such as Google spans hundreds of servers.

Hmm, how did the Dad character from Non Sequitur respond in almost this exact same situation?
