The World Wide Web, by Tim Berners-Lee, who then worked at CERN, had such a profound and complex impact on the world of the then and the world of today and tomorrow that it was impossible to think and anticipate .
For some entrepreneurs who saw ahead, it has brought tremendous wealth and continues to be a means of enrichment, in lawful and illegal ways.
It has given an unprecedented power to the media that they want freedom of speech to be enhanced and strengthened, although sometimes it is not so certain.
But no one can be left ecstatic by its enormous size.

There are 1070000000 sites, although it is estimated that 75 percent is not active, according to Internet Live Stats.
These sites have 4.730 million websites.
