Yes, I'm aware. I wanted to know if WMF has style guidance on the issue. AP calls for caps vs. emerging practice of usage as a common noun (particularly in the UK -- Economist, BBC, Guardian, et al).
See more here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitalization_of_%22Internet%22
Personally I prefer lowercase -- the "Internet," as per Evgeny Morozov, does actually not exist.

Proper noun ("the Internet") per AP.
