English is a good language IMO because of its ability to just take words from other languages and adapt.
I wish I still had a link to a study on US Internet imperialism. I think it was rather old but it would talk about Internet traffic between two european countries that would still route through the US, how our telecom companies rigged the bandwidth so that the bandwidth going from the US to smaller counties would far exceed bandwidth going from smaller countries to the US, and a bunch of other things on how the Internet was centered around the US.

Hey algore invented the thing why shouldn't it all route through the US?

"US Internet imperialism"? Sounds like Ward Churchill or Howard Dean babbling away.
