If it's a fact, then of course you can and should provide a reference to a peer-reviewed publication. (i.e., not reddit.)

apparently about 1.4 TB/s to 2.2 TB/s if you consider an uptime of five seconds and ignore potential packet loss), severed connections, upload and download speeds, data compression techniques

Im pretty sure thats for PC users. I think mac users are capped at 500 GB/s.

The human genome contains 3164.7 million chemical nucleotide bases (A, C, T, and G).

Base 4, not base 2.

6329.4 million bits per sperm.

5.89 GB of data per sperm.
