> Wireless internet is still connected to the rest of the internet via a wire somewhere
Wireless refers to a specific component of the connection - the the connection between your device and the relevant wireless base station.
No one technical is claiming "wireless internet" - and if they are, they're as guilty as the server-less crowd - they're claiming a wireless local area network (wifi), or wireless wide area network (3g/4g/WiMax, etc) - they're not inherently "the internet" they're just a radio based method for transferring packets of data.
Here, you have developers literally uploading the code they've written ( the javascript code that runs on AWS' 'lambda' service ), configuring 5 separate rented services and then claiming "look ma, no server".
