Search: devil's advocate origin
Why: Eric argued that there are multiple internets, not just one (The Internet). I think he just wanted to argue.
Answer: A Roman church official! He was appointed to argue the case against a proposed candidate for sainthood. In Latin, he is called the Advocatus Diaboli, though his official title is Promoter of Faith (Promotor Fidei), which is kind of lame.
The supporter of the candidate was called Advocatus Dei - "God's Advocate."
