The first workable prototype of the Internet came in the late 1960s with the creation of ARPANET, or the Advanced Research Projects Agency Network. Originally funded by the U.S. Department of Defense, ARPANET used packet switching to allow multiple computers to communicate on a single network.
Can you elaborate on this?
Just a reminder the interwebs aren't what you understand them to be. Is Usenet controlled by the DOD? No.. you can extrapolate it from there.
