There's more pain in the healing than there is in the wounding.

I suspect if governments knew where internet was going - they'd have killed it while they could.
"Smart" phones have been around since the early 1990's although it is true that the iPhone caused them to really take off in popularity. The term "smartphone was first used in 1997.

As for the government killing the internet -- they invented it!

You note I said "like iPhone" when describing smart phones, ones the average non-geek was interested in, they are very different to the Sony Ericsson P910 I brought back in early 90s

While it was still the ARPANET they would be happy, it's allowing everyone access to it they don't like.

Rumour has it that it comes in two flavours: too hot and too cold.

AirTouch Cellular rates, late ‘90s. Would be even more alarming if adjusted for inflation…
