You forgot, We have the tech.

Most of the communications lines run through the usa. Even though the main lines for consumers are inadequate for true high speed connections (+20mbps asymmetrical)

Give the fact that the ARPANET was a USA project too, I would like to claim we really did start the beginning of internet.

We do need to play nice with the other internet main hubs though. I KNOW the internet will not work without multi-country cooperation.

Mmmm, can I have "myname" as the suffix?

Could a company have it's name, could there be www.anyting.microsoft?

Can I register the suffixes:
.microsoft
.apple
.uk
.us
.usa
.news
.film
.movies
.google
.haha

Tsar Bomba

The Soviet Union did design a 100 megaton fusion bomb, called the Tsar Bomba, and actually tested it at half-power (50MT) on October 30, 1961, but it was considered by both the USSR and the USA as impractical for actual use; too large for any missile, and any plane carrying it would get shot down long before reaching its target. Plus the detonation effects would be mostly wasted, better to use multiple smaller devices more accurately targeted.

Better to eliminate the porn than condone it. But then why would John need Internet access?

INQ Poll

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
