It was the US.

BT ad gets into a muddle about the internet's origins - BBC News

Yeah mine was tongue in cheek due to a thread a fee days back.

Cannot be assed to find it.

But in summary

1960s US Tech institutes had arpanet??

1990's tim berners-lee gave us html and www

So the uk gave the 'internet' to the masses

So take your pick really

It is to an old timer who was happily standing on picket lines and chumming up to IRA terrorists back in the 1970s.

Problem is the World has long since moved on, but the old fossil is still in his dreams back in those happy days with his love Diane.

FTFY

But the internet is not new fangled ...

It's a contrived amateurish last minute attempt by Labour spinners to get down wid da kids.

Even Corbyn knows the new fangled Internet is as important as physical soap boxes these days.

I thought it was complete and utter rubbish to be honest. A total waste of time reading it.

Oh, I thought the quote that went viral was some soundbite buried amongst all that copy, not the whole thing.

I read the first few lines and started to lose the will to live so gave up.

I'm amazed it got any likes at all bearing in mind the attention span of the social media demographic.

WGAF what you think ?

You are one fat lazy loser eating KFC in your bed, counting the days till you pop your clogs. You must be very sad to pretend to be a female.

[scooterscot]

Feck off you lefty loon.

You'll be in the right pickle of you loose that bet and your Swindon property portfolio crashes under a labour government. 2017 could be your year of years.

Only young people take any notice of viral Facebook quotes, and not many of them either if that laboured diatribe had only 5000 "likes" or whatever the number was.

Come the 8th we'll see what the vast majority of voters, even many former Labour ones, really think about Compo and his communist chums.

I assume the reason Facebook is awash with Pro-Corbyn stuff is that all the tories supports have jobs so are working somewhere rather than pissing about on social media?

No the Tories main supporters don't know how to use social media as they are coffin dodgers.
