um.. no.

Arpanet which then later evolved to the internet, was designed to not have a central point of failure.

the World wide web was created by Tim Berners-Lee to allow the interexchange of information across distances in an interconnecting "web" manner. he didn't file a patent for his invention because he wanted everyone to share in its growth.. in hindsight, he should have patented it and just not enforce it except to stop idiots from patenting things that shouldn't be granted.


Fight the history lesson!
