I don’t doubt the conclusion, but does the 6% figure account for the energy cost at the data center and network nodes, or is it just the power for the user’s devices? (I’m a bit too lazy to skim through that 600 page PDF)

the 6% is electricity consumption within the home; the second link puts datacenter usage at 1% of global electricity consumption.
