FYI The Daily Telegraph's article appears to be based on the following three articles in the magazine Nature which describes itself as the "international weekly journal of science."

Is this the end of blood donation? Scientists close to unlimited supply from stem cells
by TTaTT4U inhttp://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/2017/05/17/end-blood-donationscientists-close-unlimited-supply-stem-cells/.
sarah knapton, science editor .
17 may 2017 • 6:00pmblood donors may no longer be needed in the future after scientists showed it was possible to create blood from stem cells.. the 20 year project could pave the way for an unlimited number of blood and immune cells for transplants, simply by reprogramming a patient’s own skin cells.. the research, reported in the journal nature, holds out enormous promise for developing personalised treatments for blood disorders, drug-screening and reducing shortages of donated blood.. dr ryohichi sugimura, of boston children's hospital, said: "this gives us the potential to have a limitless supply of blood stem cells and blood by taking cells from universal donors.

That's cool
it was simply your 'throwaway' comment:
Could one website handle the traffic of 1.2 billion plus people?
Which I understood to be a rhetorical-style question referencing the apparent lack of technology to handle this large number - vis-a-vis a website such as youtube that does actually handle 20 or so billion visitors with video files.
I like to cross the t's and dot the i's

TTaTT4U may be referring to this? But then again, if this was it, I'm sure they'd have provided a link themselves?

Another example of people who use a straw-man argument when they read your comments and realize that they were wrong.
I was purely making the factual comment that a website could handle 1.2 billion visits - therefore if the Catholic Church or Youtube or whoever wanted a website to cater for 1.2 billion people it is possible - there was no comment regarding the need or requirement or anything else - purely that it is technically possible.
Therefore the reason why the Catholic Church does not have 'one' website is NOT because of an issue with the technology - it is for another reason - but do NOT blame the lack of technology as being the reason!
I had already written:
Could one website handle the traffic of 1.2 billion plus people?
I believe youtube gets 20.5 billion visits-per-month - videos are not exactly 'light-weight' traffic
So, yes, it is likely that one website could handle the traffic of 1.2 billion plus people.

We're not talking whether it is possible for 1.2 billion Catholics to get all their information from one website or whether people discuss language. We're talking if this is a real issue of importance to begin with.
? Don't try to blame technology - the principle is that, if the catholics wanted it all on one website, one website could handle it - vis-a-vis youtube - but the catholics have decided not to.
anyway, not wasting time on this - besides I'm looking at from a technical point of view, not religious view.

How often do people outside of the Watchtower's influence discuss and even long for websites that are translated into a large number of languages? How often is the subject discussed when important issues arise?
With Brexit - it'll be interesting with the EU dropping English as one of their 'official' languages....
Could one website handle the traffic of 1.2 billion plus people?
I believe youtube gets 20.5 billion visits-per-month - videos are not exactly 'light-weight' traffic
So, yes, it is likely that one website could handle the traffic of 1.2 billion plus people.
