The term is quite over used in my opinion, it is very often used in hyperbole. Whether it is in terms of popularity and driving traffic to a website or a threat said to break the Internet, it doesn’t seem to live up to the meaning of the term.

    Yeah, I think that was the last viral thing that was so popular that it (even in this small way) broke the Internet.
