Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Internet was established in the mid-1960s as a way for researchers to communicate with one another.

Note: None of the other options are correct. The World Wide Web is a part of the Internet, but they are not the same thing. The development of the Internet was primarily funded by the US government, not banks and businesses. And while certain technologies may use a star topology, the Internet as a whole is not based on this topology.
