The fax machine actually had a massive impact on society and is much older than you think (newer than the telegram, older than the telephone, and in use during Abraham Lincolns life time).
Just because it’s usefulness had declined in the prior 10 years to him making that statement, doesn’t mean it didn’t affect the economy.

A Nobel Prize really makes you stop questioning yourself huh?
It’s not a real Nobel Prize, it’s a Bank of Sweden prize and it’s a better reflection of Swedish economic politics than true innovation in the field (probably because economics is more applied philosophy than science).
I wonder if they made him give his nobel prize back after a couple years.
