[QUOTE]Originally posted by meninarmer: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Herukhuti: [qb] ^ Don't be silly. I know the history of the Internet, and the ARPANET. Basic high school computer science stuff. So if the INTERNET is owned by US (Barack's kingdom :D ) and Europe, is Nigeria supposed to die of a heartattack? Aren't China and every other country in the world doing just fine? In any case, if the US & Europeans decide they don't want to share their icecream anymore, they lose. We can always set up our own "network" of computers sharing information and name it and make it whatever we want. But you wouldn't know that because you really don't know much about the IT industry or the fundamentals of computer networks. [/qb][/QUOTE]China uses Open Source software (Linux) or they pirate Windows. There is no IF the US owns the Internet. If you know about [b]DARPA-Net[/b] , then you know the US developed it using US funds and engineers. IT is a service based on computer MAINTENANCE and has absolutely nothing to do with computer intellectual property. If you wish to discuss IT, then I suggest you open a thread related to that subject. It is not relevant to this higher level discussion, nor is defensiveness from those who do not understand the topic. [/QB][/QUOTE]
