Did Al Gore Invent the Internet?

No. Nor, did he claim to inventing it either. I thought about this, as I came across some allegations about his so-called quote of him claiming he invented the Internet.Al Gore

These outlandish claims came from his political adversaries who wanted to tarnish his credibility. His statement was completely taken out of context during an interview with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer. His context was that he was one of the only candidates who supported the growth of (what we know as) the Internet. He isn’t claiming that he created, but from a politician’s role, did his part to help make it accessible to everyone.

Like most rumors and life’s uncertainties, go ahead and check out Snopes and read it yourself. 🙂
