I'm sorry, and I don't want to be disrespectful or rude, but as a person who has no clue about computers I am very surprised the creator of Linux is still alive. I somehow thought he is super old and probably dead by now or at least not using the internet. I'm so sorry for my ignorance.

Edit: Thank you everyone for the many interesting replies, I've learned a lot of random stuff which I greatly appreciate!

Please stop with this. Al Gore said he took the initiative in creating the Internet. As in, he used his abilities as a lawmaker to make the internet possible.

AI Gore claims he invented the Internet is a right wing op.

It's a joke. I don't believe Al Gore invented the internet. I don't believe Al Gore believes he invented the internet.
