Minitel launched in 1982, well after work had begun on interconnections between different computer networks, using the predecessor protocols to TCP/IP and what would become the addressing/domain name system. Minitel launched on protocols that were ultimately incompatible with the rest of the Internet, and didn’t have an easy way to actually get joined in.

Minitel was more of an alternative internet than it was the inspiration for the migration of the internet to becoming a HTTP/www-centered network.

If I was using a website called “Facebloke” that was well known to have been made and ran in the UK, I’d assume everyone on it was British.

Ah, yes! The 3 billion Americans on Facebook!

And why would you make that assumption? The internet has no borders, so it doesn’t really matter where or by whom something is made. Especially if the language is English, which has somewhere between 1.5 and 2 billion speakers worldwide.

The internet has no borders

Except that it actually does. See: China, North Korea, other fucked up governments that lock down the Internet for their people etc.

Yes, I saw that. But it is obviously meant to be an analogy for how Facebook is a website famously made in America by an American.
