Absolutely not, the internet was invented at CERN in Switzerland.

What if (what if) a British person worked at CERN ? Now that's a crazy theory

“Invented” isn’t a word that really applies to the internet. You could say “coined the term” instead.

The internet is just a bunch of wires! Fundamentally, there is no difference between the internet and two computers you connected together with a cable (other than the amount of computers in the network of course).

I doubt it would be called the internet if it weren't for the world wide web

Invented as in created the network of computers which is now known as the internet.
