Correct Answer: Cordless phone

The first cordless phones were actually created in 1965, but it could be said that the technology might have been developed earlier if the laws in the US were different. At that time, the phone companies owned many of the phone lines and most of them were owned by AT&T. If a home had a telephone, it was leased to the customer by AT&T. There was no way to couple a cordless phone to the existing network. It was against the law.
