The significance of this can be ascertained in old footage of a telephone exchange, where people would physically attach lines together with a cable to connect a call. Like most of the most advance technology, the ARPANET was invented by the US military for communication purposes. (They even ended up making the dark web when trying to create a private network on the existing internet.) \n\nThe TCP/IP protocol, was really a group of protocols and although not invented by Burners-Lee, was the basis for his work. This protocol allows two computers, the method and means to transfer data. [Techopedia] The TCP part breaks data down into transferable packets and allows the receiver to put it back together. The IP allows for the data to be transferred to one another, via something we are all familiar with, an IP address. The simplest way to think about this is, TCP is the words and language of a letter and the IP protocol is the postal system that gets it there. Although the TCP protocol was invented in 1974, it wasn’t until March 1982 that the US Department of Defense declared TCP/IP as the standard for all military computer networking. [Wikipedia] This essentially laid the ground work for a form of email, we had made it as far as one to one messaging. This protocol is over 36 years old (at the time of writing in 2018), just think about that for a second, who’d even heard of email before the 1990’s? The interesting thing with all these connected computers, is they are actually communicating directly with one another. Although to us they would have looked like Server computers due to their size, rather than Personal Computer (PCs), which hadn’t been invented yet. This architecture (of 1:1 connections) was originally designed to serve a closed trusted network, in this example the US Military. Like most good communications tools, what started off as military technology, soon became civilian technology. However, the idea that all the servers (or nodes) in the network were trusted, never changed when these protocols were used to launch the world wide web in 1990. This again wasn’t much of a problem in the early years as the civilian internet was only used by people with expensive computer equipment, such as universities and research facilities. Information could flow between them without the fear that one may act nefariously and compromise the network. \n\nNow add to this perfectly maintained network, regular lay people and their home computers. In 1993 the world saw the first commercially available internet browser, Netscape, that allowed PC’s to access the internet. This boom in numbers, of both people and devices, accessing the internet continued unabated for the next quarter of a century. All the while underpinned by the notion that, those devises accessing the internet can be trusted to act well and not compromise the integrity of the network. Now, anybody who has ever used the internet or even bought a computer will be aware that they need anti-virus software to protect against attacks from viruses. The phrases “Malware” and “hack” among many others have trickled into the public’s vernacular, becoming ubiquitous in the modern age. These kinds of attacks on personal, government and institutional computers and servers, all exploit this original set of protocols. I personally find this fact astonishing. We consider computers and the internet to be state of the art technology, the pinnacle of human social evolution. Yet it functions on a set of rules laid out 36 years ago, that expose all of us to malicious attacks. Essentially the internet protocols were not designed for the internet in its current form, with billions of users online. So what? You may ask. Everything appears alright, malware and hacking are an inconvenience, but unless you’ve had your personal data stolen, you probably don’t see an issue with any of this. Your argument might say “Everybody has a device in their pocket that can download large files in seconds”, which gives the illusion that the internet is functioning just fine. However, if you peak under the hood, this notion is quickly shattered. The way the TCP/IP protocols work is relatively straight forward, in theory. One computer asks another for information, which is then transferred. This is why your internet provider tells you about download and upload speeds, and why your upload speed is always significantly lower. Again, this all sounds hunky dory, since ya know, it works and stuff. But the practicalities are a completely different ball game. In reality we have lots of individual devices accessing one server or node, which creates a bottle neck for data. This is why if there is higher than normal activity, a website will crash. Furthermore, it forms the basis for a Distributed Denial of Service (or DDOS) attack. People who have an interest in keeping the internet running, such as Internet service providers (ISP’s) have invested heavily in beefing up the amount of traffic they can receive. This gives the panacea of a completely flawless system, that most people will currently buy into. But with the thirst for more information and (more likely) larger video files, we can’t just keep adding more power. Moore’s law [Hyperlink] doesn’t apply here, as we are dealing with communications which rely on a two-way transfer of data and bandwidth is. For one, more power is more expensive and resource intensive. We can’t just keep throwing money at the problem and hope it will go away. \n\nThese two problems can be boiled down to trust and architecture. I believe these any many problems with the internet can be solved by blockchain. Like all the best ideas, blockchain solves a myriad of problems, through the use of many different technologies. It is a very adaptable technology, solving more problems than the sum of its parts. It may even solve more problems we haven’t applied it to yet. Some of the most important technologies which help blockchain to function are encryption, cryptography and distributed ledger technologies. Blockchain combines these by cryptographically encrypting information onto a distributed ledger. They are organized in blocks and linked via cryptographic hashing, hence the name blockchain. Each block is linked to the last and the block via this hashing, which is how the ledger becomes immutable. It’s impossible to change one block in the ledger without effecting the others, this helps mitigate fraud and double spending. Writing information to the blockchain by creating new blocks through this cryptographic hashing of blocks is what is known as “mining”. This phrase you may have heard of in cryptocurrency, but it’s also an integral part of blockchain. Mining is where nodes running the correct software, will compete to find the correct cryptographic hash to add to the blockchain, this earns them a reward. The reward comes in the form of a digital currency, or cryptocurrency. The way it’s determined that a “miner” has found the correct cryptographic hash can be a bit complex, but essentially they compete to solve a mathematical equation. Importantly for the integrity of the network, the answer is hard to find but easy to prove. Once a node has found the correct solution, she will broadcast it to all the other miners in the network. The other miners will prove the equation is right, agree (or reach a consensus) and they’ll all add the block to their copy of the distributed ledger. This method allows two completely unknown nodes to reach a consensus, the method I just explained is known as a Proof-of-work (PoW) consensus protocol. It means that we have created trust in a completely trustless environment, unlike the traditional TCP/IP protocols which just assume trust exists. At the same time as creating a functioning trust mechanism between untrusted parties, blockchain also solves the issue of bottlenecking in the existing internet architecture. By having a larger decentralized and distributed network, we also create multiple points of access. Therefore, if one server fails, we have many more to choose from. This creates a network that is harder to attack and easier to maintain. Think of the DDOS attacks I mentioned before, If one server is overloaded then we can easily switch to another without a disruption the services. Peer-to-Peer serving like this provides far quicker access to data, by picking up packets of data from more than one source. Asking multiple nodes for the data it needs at the same time means it can  be downloaded concurrently. This form of decentralization means all nodes (or in this case PCs, mobile phones and tablets) can interact directly with one another and transfer data, like servers. Turning the internet from a bunch of siloed servers, owned by big companies and institutions, to open architecture with fair access for everyone. \n\nThe internet has truly revolutionized the world, of that there is no denying, but the infrastructure is well out of date. The fact we rely on protocols designed before most millennials were born, is evidence enough that a change is needed. Blockchain offers a plethora of solutions to the ills of the internet. Trust and speed are just two of these, but there are many more that I’ll discuss in future articles. However, I felt these two, were the basis for a fundamental shift in the way the internet works. Creating a new paradigm from which innovation will flow. Imagine how different the world would look if there was universal trust. A tad utopian, perhaps, but innovation would be massively increased. Think about trust in the current economic system, it’s the basis for credit, without which we’d have very little research and development. It’s interesting to consider how new businesses that may be launched will look, or the old ones reborn, by having trusted data flows between all devices. Before now the “internet of things” was just a bunch of IP addresses interacting with a central server like a glorified “intranet” (that’s intra not inter). We had to create a connection and make the devises trusted, manually. Whereas blockchain technology, will release these devices to interact with one another completely autonomously. Smart contracts will allow them to create automated transactions, either of data or money, which previously needed the arbitration of a trusted third party (usually a slow and useless human). Even for systems currently automated, the need to go to a trusted server doubles (if not more) the distance a signal needs to travel, no matter how physically near those two devices are. Now however we can bypass this resource intensive step, freeing it up for other purposes. These resources can be put to use around the world and distributed in a fairer way. Helping less developed nations advance much quicker than they could by building large expensive internet infrastructure. The internet was born from the idea of access to distributed information, but has become a victim of its own success. Blockchain will finally make this lofty ambition achievable.\n\n![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmS6HM1g2Y4z43upuV9LWkPSQw31NQuSoaCkzra62y1Sdk/image.png)",
