Bro you can't even store a boolean as a bit on programming languages like Python.
A true/false bit on Python gobbles up an entire byte.
Just kidding I totally made that up.

In Python, a boolean (True or False) is a subtype of an integer and occupies 28 bytes in memory for the object itself in a typical 64-bit Python implementation (e.g., CPython 3.x).

lol 28 bytes for true/false

Data is not transferred over the Internet as bits.
They use "packets", and those packets contain bytes.

A typical internet packet size ranges from 64 bytes to 1500 bytes, with 1500 bytes being the standard Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) for Ethernet networks.

But thank you for forcing me to look it up because I learned something.
