12 > Starting in 1973, when my colleagues and I proposed the
\r
13 > technology behind the Internet, we advocated for an open
\r
14 > standard to connect computer networks together. This wasn't
\r
15 > merely philosophical; it was also practical. [...] Our
\r
16 > protocols were designed to make the networks of the Internet
\r
17 > non-proprietary and interoperable. They avoided "lock-in",
\r
18 > and allowed for contributions from many sources. This openness
\r
19 > is why the Internet creates so much value today. Because it
\r
20 > is borderless and belongs to everyone, it has brought
\r
21 > unprecedented freedoms to billions of people worldwide:
\r
22 > the freedom to create and innovate, to organize and
\r
23 > influence, to speak and be heard.
