You can break this down into the Dominions and the Colonies, and I can only give a partial answer, thanks to my country of origin. Canada became a Dominion in 1867, but maintained strong links to the Empire throughout the late 1800s and into the 1900s. The Statute of Westminster in 1931 allowed some separation of the powers, allowing Canada, Australia, India and some other colonies to act more independently. Of course, loyalty to the Empire was still strong. 1947 saw the return of self-rule to India, and the beginnings of what we know now as the Commonwealth. The African colonies regained some self control in the 1950s and 60s. The role of the sovereign as Ruler of the Empire gradually morphed into Head of the Commonwealth.

The British colonial empire at its height in the early 20th century was vast, encompassing territories and colonies in various regions of the world. It included territories in North America (such as Canada), the Caribbean (such as Jamaica), Africa (such as Nigeria and South Africa), Asia (including India, Burma, and Singapore), and the Pacific (including Australia and New Zealand). Overall, the British Empire covered around 25% of the world's land area and included a population of approximately 400 million people.

During the French and Indian War, the British government promised American Indians land and sovereignty over their territories if they allied with the British against the French. This was part of a broader strategy to secure Native American support in the conflict. However, these promises were often not honored after the war, leading to further tensions between Native Americans and British settlers.

They can't control the global internet, no, because nobody legally owns the internet. The internet is the property of the people of Earth, not one single government. However, the government can control what websites are accessible in their country. For example, the British government can block Mexican drug websites from being accessible in British territories, because they are against the law.
