Source? Instant global communication is valuable enough by itself to attract massive investments and interest. I highly doubt technological advancements from adtech was in any way shape or form required for that.

If that's the case, with the advent of email in the early 1990s, why didn't the internet completely take off? It took another 15 to 20 years and only when Google and Facebook came into the picture, did we get open source technologies that spread throughout the world and is used daily.
