Fun fact: Back in the 1970s, White House Chief of Staff H.R. Haldeman had a
scheme to connect every house in America with
coaxial cable. He envisioned a country where
"There would be two-way communication. "Through computer you could use your television set to order whatever you wanted. The morning paper, entertainment services, shopping services, coverage of sporting events & public events....Just as Eisenhower linked up the nation's cities by highways so you could get there, the Nixon legacy would have linked them by cable communications so you wouldn't have to go there."; This didn't happen because another
of Haldeman's plans didn't pan out.
Watergate became his Waterloo
& Nixon's legacy was kinda ruined.
