[1] [[Internet]] と [[internet]] 
を区別するのに[[片仮名]]で''インターネット''と書くより[[ラテン文字]]のまま
''Internet'' とか ''internet'' と書くのが良いと思います。

[2] ついでに言えば、文脈によっては Internet のことは[[冠詞]]をつけて
''the Internet'' と書きましょう。
([[日本語]]文脈では一般には不要と思いますが。)
- [3] >>1-2 はっきり言ってどっちでもいいと思う。小文字の internet なんてあんまり使わんし。
- [4] >>1,3 まあ喪前らの好きにしなさいってこった。
- [5] 個々は楽しいインターネットですね。

* インターネット軍事技術説

>1994年7月、アメリカ・タイム誌で、「インターネットは核攻撃下でのコミュニケーションの生き残りを想定して開発された」[6]という記事が掲載される。ARPANET立ち上げ時のIPTO責任者であったロバート・テイラーは、この記事に対して事実とは異なる旨、正式な抗議をタイム誌に対して行った。以降、ARPANETは核戦争時のための軍事ネットであるという俗説が流布するようになる。

Although the ARPANET was designed to survive subordinate-network losses, the principal reason was that the switching nodes and network links were unreliable, even without any nuclear attacks. About the resources scarcity that spurred the creation of the ARPANET, Charles Herzfeld, ARPA Director (1965–1967), said:
>>   The ARPANET was not started to create a Command and Control System that would survive a nuclear attack, as many now claim. To build such a system was, clearly, a major military need, but it was not ARPA’s mission to do this; in fact, we would have been severely criticized had we tried. Rather, the ARPANET came out of our frustration that there were only a limited number of large, powerful research computers in the country, and that many research investigators, who should have access to them, were geographically separated from them.

>It was from the RAND study that the false rumor started claiming that the ARPANET was somehow related to building a network resistant to nuclear war. This was never true of the ARPANET, only the unrelated RAND study on secure voice considered nuclear war. However, the later work on Internetting did emphasize robustness and survivability, including the capability to withstand losses of large portions of the underlying networks.
