Edison was a conniving, crooked bastard, that set technical modernization back decades, purely out of spite,jealousy and greed.

It was a lot easier to invent stuff when nothing existed.

A proponent of direct current, he electrocuted dogs and even an elephant to try to prove the dangers of alternating current.

How Thomas Edison bankrupted the first master filmmaker
frick that dude. This is just one of the many stories of him stealing other people's intellectual properties.

In 1902, the Frenchman George Melies made A Trip to the Moon, a classic regarded as the first science fiction film. Unfortunately for him, Thomas Edison got his hands on a print of it and pirated it until Melies could barely make any money from it in America. Later in life, a bitter and broke Melies decided to burn his hundreds of films

Didn't Tesla die alone, poor, and forgotten? That doesn't sound like last laugh material.

Contrary to popular belief he did not invent the light bulb.
