Is there a published date on there somewhere? I didn't see one but I'm curious. It cites an estimate that total internet throughput is 167 terabits per second but I can't imagine it's that low these days.
archive.org suggests that What-If #31 appeared sometime around the 10th of February, 2013. That fits with one of the links in the article which first appeared (again, according to archive.org) in 2008 and ceased to be valid around 2015.
Randall has (or his team has) updated the formatting on the What-If site, but they haven't bothered to fix the links.
explainxkcd.com gives the publication date as 2013‑02‑05.
