Who invented the internet?

As you might expect for a technology so expansive and everchanging, it is impossible to credit the
 invention of the Internet to a single person.Long before the technology existed to actually build the Internet, many scientists had already anticipated the existence of worldwide networks of information.

•  Nikola Tesla toyed with the idea of a “world wireless system” in the early 1900s, and visionary thinkers like Paul Otlet and Vannevar Bush conceived of mechanized, searchable storage systems of books andmedia in the 1930s and 1940s.                                                                             Still, the first practical schematics for the Internet would notarrive until the early 1960s, when MIT’s J.C.R. Licklider popularized the idea of an“Intergalactic Network” of computers. Shortly thereafter, computer scientists developed the concept of “packet switching,” a method for effectively transmitting electronic data that would later become one of the major building blocks of the Internet.
• The first workable prototype of the Internet came in the late 1960s with the creation of ARPANET.                                                                                                                                 Originally funded by the U.S. Department of Defense, ARPANET used packet switching to allow multiple computers to communicate on a single network. 
• The technology continued to grow in the 1970s after scientists Robert Kahn and Vinton Cerf developed.
•   ARPANET adopted TCP/IP on January 1, 1983, and from there researchers began to assemble the “network of networks” that became the modern Internet.
• The online world then took on a more recognizable form in 1990,when computer scientist Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web.
