He and CERN released the Web's code into the public domain in 1993, declining royalties to promote open access and universal adoption.

He proposed it to manage information at CERN, not his personal schedule. The initial concept was for sharing research data among scientists.

This is a myth. No such incident occurred. The early Web was small and robust, but no deletion event happened.

He used a NeXTcube workstation, gifted by Steve Jobs, to create the first web server and browser at CERN.
