Ok, the Internet was developed as a research project funded by the U.S. Department of Defense way back in the 60’s and 70’s (just in case the U.S. had a major attack and the government had to go into hiding but could still maintain a system of communications). It wasn’t until the 80’s when the “World Wide Web” came to be after the government lifted it restrictions on use of the net.

The internet was created by the US government for military operations. The internet has been around for a long time, but not near the form we see it now.

Nerds were gaming on the internet for years before it hit mainstream and took off like shot.
