8. Tim Berners-Lee: Inventor of the World Wide Web
Tim Berners-Lee, a British computer scientist, invented the World Wide Web in 1989 while working at CERN. He developed the first web browser and server, introducing the fundamental protocols and algorithms that allowed the Web to scale. This innovation revolutionized global communication, much like Johannes Gutenberg’s printing press transformed information dissemination in the 15th century (britannica.com).
