Actually it appeared a little before 1991, in 1989. There was first Internet connection to Finland in Demos institute (their demos.su domain is still operational) and I can remember reading their Usenet posting about communist coup d'etat in 1991.
- thodin 6y agoDemos got their international UUCP connection only in 1990. In 1989 they were playing with Moscow-only UUCP network. Everything was dialup based. In 1991 they played with local TCP/IP in Moscow, in 1992 started to make dialup calls to Finland with SLIP instead of pure UUCP. Only in 1993 several permanent TCP/IP links from Russia (Demos, SOVAM Teleport, etc) to the West were finally established.
