    The very first internet connection occurred on 30 October 1969

    No. Earliest cross node connection was early 1969: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/NPL_network

    https://www.researchgate.net/publication/237130669_How_the_Internet_came_to_be

    This is the book be Vincent Cerf where he explains that ARPANET isn’t the Internet. Good to know that the people who created the Internet are wrong.

    I get it. You were taught in school that US government created the internet. It’s a good explanation to the 4th grader. It’s also simplistic and incorrect, but that’s how elementary schools teach. It’s like that with a lot of knowledge, it becomes more nuanced the more you know about it.
