        I know, But it was marketed would have been a better word imo, it was essentially Tesla design, just marketed much better. So Marketed not invented.

        Decentralization is the New Antitrust Retweeted Zak Kukoff

        Every time someone accuses a new innovation of reinventing something that already exists, I think back to that very comment about FTP. People shouting "You reinvented X!" forget user experience and execution matter with respect to products and services.https://twitter.com/zck/status/967159093705170945 …

        Um Tim Berners-Lee did ont create the world wide wide web but did invent HTTP on the Application layer. That is per OSI 7 layers 1/7th of the web. I guess every nation needs his 'inventor' of the web 😁😁

        Web != Internet Tim Berners-Lee invented HTML (based on SGML) and HTTP, which together define the World Wide Web. Of course, HTTP requires some reliable stream protocol to transport it, and that requires other layers below it. But those aren't the web.

        The internet. The Web is the HTTP/HTML protocol/application layer which sits on top of the internet. Sure, everyone uses these termsinterchangeably, but the definition Shawn and I are giving here is pretty standard.
