Internetmuseum is run by the independent organization The Internet Foundation in Sweden (Internetstiftelsen i Sverige) and features a mix of technology, politics, and internet culture. The ambition of the museum is to spread knowledge of the Swedish history of Internet and to preserve the digital heritage.[3][4]

The museum retains websites of certain historical interest such as all websites from Sweden's first commercial ISP Swipnet.[5]
