Connected to the internet with no network process

This is what I did.

Code:
$ ps -ef | grep -i networkroot      6657     1  0 12:55 ?        00:00:01 /usr/sbin/NetworkManager
bob       7251  7212  0 13:24 pts/3    00:00:00 grep --color=auto -i

$ sudo kill -9 6657
[sudo] password for bob: 

$ ping -c 5 google.com

$ ps -ef | grep -i network
bob       7271  7212  0 13:26 pts/3    00:00:00 grep --color=auto -i network

How am I still connected to the internet? I killed my network process.

NetworkManager is not your "network process". There is no such thing in Linux -- that's handled inside the kernel.

NetworkManager loads/detects settings. Once its done so, its job is done, and things can happily keep on moving without it.
