Back where the men were men, the women were men, and the children were FBI agents.

Define old internet, do you mean forums, usenet, IRC. What exactly is the old internet?

[–] blind3rdeye@lemm.ee 11 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Old internet is where different people had different websites, and they'd link together with web-rings. People would explore and discover and share. The old internet was not dominated by mega-corps. There were no facebook accounts and no google accounts. It was just people sharing their ideas and interests - without trying to turn everything into a side-hustle, or data-harvest or anything like that.

You could find that in darknets, corps don't do darknets.
