Ray tomlinson vs shiva ayyadurai youtube

Innovators deserve recognition for their accomplishments, which is an important principle in any creative enterprise.

Here is why Ray Tomlinson (not Shiva Ayyadurai) is rightfully credited for inventing the email.

Equally important is the principle that neither should recognition be withheld from innovators, who have earned it, nor should recognition be given to those who have not. At the same time, in a spirit of proper respect for both Ray Tomlinson and for myself, I want to make it clear that I am the inventor of email, not Ray Tomlinson, despite what others might say for reasons of their own.

I had been assigned to create a software system that duplicated the features of the Interoffice Mail System, which was simply a manila envelope that physically circulated around a workplace. The envelope contained the Interoffice Memo with Attachments, and comments from various recipients on a given topic. Copyright for that software, officially recognizing me as The Inventor of Email, at a time when Copyright was the only way to recognize software inventions, since the U.

Supreme was not recognizing software patents. More information about my invention of email is available on my website, vashiva. My website also references the fact that that I began life in a low-caste Indian family who later emigrated to the United States, and that I now have four degrees from MIT, including a PhD, and have continued innovating long after inventing email.

I have no doubt that my origin and ethnicity have strongly influenced controversy over my invention of email. This has also influenced the withholding of recognition for that invention, and for personal and racist attacks directed against me.

In many ways I just did not fit the mold of a s high tech innovator. I was not white, I was not working for the military or for a defense contractor, and I must have seemed too young and too naive to stand up for the truth. But now I am standing up for the truth. It should also be clear that my expressing that truth is not an act of vanity or vindictiveness.
