had + verd-ed is used to indicate an action that started and ended in the past, in this case we are describing an action that started in the past but is still happening in the present, eliminate A, and B.
C uses "that" referring to the internet rather than to " proliferation of computers". Eliminate
between D and E, there is a tense difference, D uses present perfect, and E past simple. Present perfect is used to describe an action that started in the past and still continue in the present when a time frame is not specified, here the year is indicated, so that even though the action started in the past and continues in the present, the correct tense to use is past perfect.
IMO E
