On the 'i'nternet

There is only one internet. So you may use the Internet. However, using lowercase is becoming a norm, especially outside of the US.

Corrections

On the 'i'"Internet" or "internet"

Something like this would read more naturally to me, since italicizing text isn't an option on this site.

So you may use "the Internet."

This was clear to me, but I think in writing, quotation marks would be better.

"Outside the US" sounds more natural to me, although it may also depend on the sort of English you have more exposure to: https://english.stackexchange.com/q/9700/113475

I didn't really think about this problem, but it looks like there has indeed been a shift to using the lowercase. Anyway, good work! My corrections were for relatively minor things, and the original text reads naturally to me.
