sejarah internet

Sebelum Internet ada, ARPAnet (US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) atau Departemen Pertahanan Amerika pada tahun 1969 membuat jaringan komputer yang tersebar untuk menghindarkan terjadinya informasi terpusat, yang apabila terjadi perang dapat mudah dihancurkan. Jadi bila satu bagian dari sambungan network terganggu dari serangan musuh, jalur yang melalui sambungan itu secara otomatis dipindahkan ke sambungan lainnya. Setelah itu Internet digunakan oleh kalangan akademis (UCLA) untuk keperluan penelitian dan pengembangan teknologi. Dan baru setelah itu Pemerintah Amerika Serikat memberikan ijin ke arah komersial pada awal tahun 1990.
