Came out of government-funded research actually. Back when we could still achieve scientific feats on behalf of our country.
It was private at that time. My point is that it spread so quickly to millions of people worldwide because of capitalists specifically the telecom companies and ISPs stepping in. Without them, the internet could never have developed on such a scale.
No it wasn't
First connections were between universities. Tim Berners-Lee at CERN then came up with web pages to easier share information
There was nothing capitalist about the internet back then
We all know how it came to be, you didn't get the point but it's okay.

I'm telling you that your point is wrong
Cool, I think it's correct and to pretend that it's otherwise won't help when you're in the search for truth. We can agree to disagree.
