Leonard Kleinrock "father of the internet" describes the emergence of the "dark side" of the internet, the first worm, and the first spam ever sent. The first spam message was from two lawyers who sold green cards. The first internet worm was sent in 1988 and the event was overlooked. Shot at Union College for the 71st annual Steinmetz Lecture.

  • I remember the first spam very well. The general outrage was not so much over the fact that the scumbag lawyers did it, but the fact that they were totally unrepentant.
