On the occasion of the annual "Father's Day" in the United States (the third Sunday of June), the well-known American technology magazine Network World website (networkworld.com) released a list of the "Ten Unsung Fathers of Technology." Network World stated that compared to figures like Tim Berners-Lee, the "Father of the World Wide Web," and Vint Cerf, the "Father of the Internet," the ten tech fathers on this list are much less famous. However, we have good reason to remember them because they too have significantly changed our lives in many ways. Notably, Network World also named a "Father of Spam" in this selection.
