Larry Roberts, a team member on the original Arpanet, has been complaining that the Internet has been "broken," for a while. He's been doing this because, as we've noted for several years now, he's been trying to sell new flow routing technology for his company, Anagran. Techdirt notes that Roberts is back again in an article for PC Authority, still insisting several years later that the Internet will break any day now, and still pushing flow control technology he claims will keep the 'Net from imploding:As Techdirt laments, nobody at PC Authority bothers to get a second opinion on the state of the Internet's health, and the bit reads more like a press release than a news report. Roberts' Arpanet credibility apparently has very long legs, as every time he pulls the "Internet is broken" sales pitch out of his bag, numerous news outlets treat his pronouncements as revolutionary and new, whether it's true or not.
