Towards the end she mentions how it was used after the 1989 sf earthquake. So if I remember the story correctly when the phones went down the ARPANET still worked because in those days it was still separate from phone lines. The internet started as a DARPA project , the idea was after a nuke attack you world still have communications because the message would be rerouted if you lost a node of the network. Then it was adopted by universities for research. So when the phones went down in 1989 people got messages out by going to sf state. Thought that was an interesting part of the clip. Maybe something maybe nothing
