History of the Internet

[@1234canadianguy]

Considering this video is from 2009, the video quality is superb. Could have easily looked like a video from 2019. Also was pleasantly surprised to hear the voice of Kurzgesagt.

[@iceinducer9528]

Still quite less detailed tho. Id be more happy if it has at least 1080P HD or better 1440P.. 720P nowadays is cheap and not that much difference from 480p lol

@@iceinducer9528bro, 13 years ago, or now 14 years ago, 720 is like 4k and we had to wait for the buffer to load on 4mbps internet. 480 and 360 is the way to go then.

holy shit

Holy and tasty shiit! We're all Kurz Gesagt's nerds we might make a facebook group :O!

Modern medicine would not also see a huge leap in advancement if there is no war. Because most leaders in the past, mostly care about their soldiers than the common folks.

720p video in 2009. Wow that's what I call a good quality video for the time xD.

[@edward2364]

Reynold Santiago So true

[@WallaceWebConsultnts]

Can't believe that the internet is actually 57 years old. Older than most of the people who use it every day. The power of the internet will never leave civilization and it is perhaps the only thing that will never become a relic in this world. Or at least, I certainly hope to have access to so much information and entertainment for the rest of my life!

[@FaeriMagic]

It was interesting to watch but about near the end of the video all the technical terms kind of overwhelmed me and I could feel my eyes gloss over....

[@FaeriMagic]

+ThunderRemedy Well yeah, I understood the gist of the general history of the internet. The graphics made it pretty simple to understand how it all came together. What I meant was that the technical terms thrown in NEAR THE END of the video was a bit overwhelming. Things like "ISO REFERENCE PROTOCOL" or "TCPIP PROTOCOL" and other similar terms like that. I haven't exactly wrote them down five times each or vocabulary exercises like that to be familiar enough with them. But yeah...thanks for re-summarizing the video for me...?

[@carlgoogle2869]

Its 10 years from now! Your video!!!

[@JSInstructor]

I find this topic so interesting. To me, it's very hard to understand. Thank you for helping me get a little closer. The thing that struck me was the amalgamation of a handful of different architectures to make the networks of the different......networks communicate with one another. I know this video is only a cursory overview, and going any deeper into the subject might just shatter most viewers' minds, but the actual mechanism for IP verification is an absolute marvel of science.

[@KisstubeTvLovers]

[@gjnelsondotcom]

[@Dms12444]

The Internet truly was an incredible achievement. Just the thought that this video has been viewed by over 2 million people speaks volumes about just how extraordinary this network has become. It'll be interesting to see what happens next. TCP/IP was incredible, but it was never designed for modern challenges. We already have IPv6 as a replacement for the addressing scheme from IPv4, and some are even saying that we should replace TCP/IP with a new, more efficient, protocol stack (project RINA).

[@squishyplums2415]

The internet is a great American invention we can be proud of.

[@Karizma7164]

European people always argue with me and say that they invented the internet and a lot of other inventions made by Americans. For example light bulbs, phones, airplanes..the list goes on. They think they invented it all.

[@squishyplums2415]

AppoX Those poor Native bastards.. you have a good point. We can thank White Americans for the internet.

[@cameroncharnock8173]

The Internet was not made by an one person or any one country. It came from the collaboration of ideas from people all over the world providing building blocks. Americans can take credit for the ARPANET but not for the entire Internet.

[@squishyplums2415]

Cam Stuart You are wrong. The internet was invented by the United States in 1957. There were collaborations around the world that improved the functions of the internet but United States takes the credit for inventing the internet.

[@cameroncharnock8173]

Then if it was the Americans, who created the internet? (person, not country) Although bonus points for not saying that the internet was created by the US government so that they had a communication system they could use in a nuclear fallout (that theory is wrong).

[@catarinobernardojoao1824]

The base of Internet architecture are the transmission control/IP protocol... There are some routers or gateway to connecte a net..

[@sonalimittal6747]

Nice 1 thanks for sharing - Cheapestuktelecoms.

[@halo6534]

The internet truly is one of the greatest inventions by man. Same with the world wide web. Which pretty much helped make the internet entertaining and commercial and helped turn computers into "entertainment devices."

[@AlvincoAetherlico]

So French invented the internet?

[@yannisdran]

no, Greece invented it. Without Democracy, we would still be on trees. Ha. So, seriously now, French's invention was only a milestone. It is being said on the video clearly. It was a very helpful one. though.

[@glossygloss472]

Not at all. The internet was developed by the US government (specifically the scientific and defense aspect). France's involvement was minor compared to the US. In fact even the U.K.'s was minor in comparison to the US.

[@martinator9480]

But I'm proud my country invented the computer.

@Omatunto The cable is not something that goes straight to the other computer. It just goes (I am seriously simplifying this) to the phone cable which goes to your phone company or ISP (internet service provider) and is then sent across using satellites.

[@AlexanderFinch]

Very beautiful rendering. Cuts down the complexity into an elegant and easy-to-understand format. Wish more technical data could be presented like this..!

[@RectalRectafire]

The internet was a result of humans working together to achieve something. To this date i would rate it one of our biggest achievements.

[@theultimatereductionist7592]

Frankly, I am surprised that the internet arrived as late as it did. I am surprised it did not arise shortly after WWII, by the time we had computers at all - even the super big ones at a few universities.

[@kikiampapi]

It's amazing since the Billboard Hot 100 was created on 1958, just a year after this. Little did we knew music was going to revolutionize the Internet.

[@bobtheisen5666]

All innovations are reached through the collaboration of intelligent and dedicated people. We often give credit to just 1 or 2 innovators.

[@ezekieo32]

The dates are a bit off and some of the information isn't found in any scholarly material, but it does help to get a better understanding.

[@mewmiki]

who would of thought that such bad things and times created the awesome internet? i feel a bit more proud using it now.

[@Titahne]

This video is probably the most educational and interesting video to watch on youtube, or the internet in overall. in my opinion atleast. great video.

[@tamex22]

great job guys, should add that after the arpanet was removed the "internet" as we calls it novadays was released for the public, until that date it was just used by private communities ;)

[@kawardt6784]

So TCP/IP and packet switching helps to improve the data transfer. And, it started with network but due to war they developed internet which it connects to different network as an insurance. Since you mentioned that some institutions were not incline to share their information, wouldnt using "internet" means they have to share their information to others?
