The amount of internet usage has increased dramatically since it first became available in the late 1990s. The amount of data consumed worldwide quadrupled from 2014 to 2018, and is estimated to double again by 2021. In the United States alone, average monthly data used per internet user has skyrocketed from 3.6GB in 2013 to 34.2GB in 2019.
The amount of internet usage has increased significantly over the past few decades. In the year 2000, only 14% of the global population was using the internet. By 2019, that number had grown to 59%. This means that internet usage has increased by more than 400% over the past two decades.
