Bangalore: Human mind has forever been capable of wandering away from the shores of reality into the wide ocean of imagination. The World never believed that man could fly unless airplanes were actually designed and piloted by the Wright Brothers, but technologists and scientists have always been proposing and trying out brilliant ideas in the hope for a wonderful future.

Some ideas implemented by researchers, who existed decades and centuries before our times, were so wonderful that they leave the innovators of the present tech world perplexed. Technologies which define this age have already been developed and executed by the departed inventors, but for some reasons they couldn’t get the required amount of attention and were rather forgotten.

Let’s take a look at some of the innovations which possibly were mistimed or done in the wrong period.

1. Hackers existed before Computers

Year: 1903

Technology: Hacking

Cyber-crime is one of the dreadful offenses in the present world and the most vital fraction of it is Hacking. Every now and then we see notorious groups of hackers barging into secured governmental as well as commercial sites to boast about what they can actually do with the data available on the web.

How was it implemented?

Though the term ‘hacking’ has gained its popularity only after the advent of the World Wide Web, the idea had been implemented decades before even the first computer was designed. A magician named Nevil Maskelyne had intercepted the wireless telegraph demonstration by Marconi and John Fleming in 1903 in a jam packed theatre in London to transmit phrases like “There was a young fellow of Italy,

Who diddled the public quite prettily.” It was later discovered that Nevil had setup a home made tower to intercept the transmission and therefore refute the boastful claims of the Italian scientist that wireless communication is highly secured. Hackers will be Hackers.
