AN OPEN LETTER FOR THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.

DEAR PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP!

I BELIEVE YOU HAVE A GOOD IDEA BOMBING IRAN...NOT WITH DEADLY FORCE BUT WITH A MILLION "DECLARAATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS" FLYERS."

  AT THE BOTTOM OF EACH FLYER YOU CAN PRINT :

YOU ARE FREE TO LIVE YOUR LIVES AS YOU WISH!

 THE UNITED STATES WILL INTERVENE ONLY IF YOUR LEADERS IGNORE THIS DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS, AND DECIDE TO MURDER YOU IN THE STREETS.

SIGNED: D. TRUMP. PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.

TIM BERNERS LEE. GENEROUS FOUNDER OF THE INTERNET.

L’homme qui a inventé le Web… et refusé d’être trillionnaire.

En 1989, Internet existe, mais il est inutilisable.
Les ordinateurs ne communiquent pas.
Les chercheurs échangent encore des disquettes.

Au CERN, un ingénieur discret en a assez du chaos : Tim Berners-Lee.

Il crée trois choses simples :
• HTML pour écrire
• URL pour trouver
• HTTP pour connecter

En 1990, le World Wide Web fonctionne.

En 1993, son rival Gopher devient payant.
Tim fait le choix inverse.

👉 Il rend le Web gratuit, ouvert, accessible à tous.

Il aurait pu breveter.
Faire payer chaque clic.
Devenir l’homme le plus riche de l’histoire.

Il ne l’a pas fait.

Résultat aujourd’hui :
• +1 milliard de sites
• Des trillions de dollars créés
• Google, Amazon, YouTube, Facebook

Tim Berners-Lee n’a pas voulu posséder le futur.
Il a voulu que tout le monde puisse le construire.
