What major historical events do you remember?
This is the day that all the people running computer systems (the military defense systems were last to agree),that they would use one Protocol and therefore would be able to communicate with each other and hence the Internet came into being and January the 1st 1983 is its’ official Birthday.
The Internet is therefore a Capricorn ,ruled by Saturn; the planet of time and responsibilities(a bit boring to be honest) born in the Chinese Year of the Pig ,a very decent sort of animal.
It had been Sir Tim Berners-Lee dream to have one system so that scientific data could be shared.That and more was officially achieved on that day.
As a date in history it is truly momentous ; generating a reaction akin to nuclear fusion ,it’s explosive impact in enabling out of this World communication continues its’ path of Worldwide dominance.
The upsides of sharing data and the potential for education and information far outweigh the downsides of misinformation and depravity.
Indeed trollish repetition and censorship have threatened the Internet but the realisation of the benefits of sharing information stands firm as a principle and in truth I believe will defeat tyranny.
