I think we all do, the internet never became what it was supposed to and now it's more far from that than ever.

Me too....I loved the anonymous internet...then one day I woke up and everyone was posting their name and information on the internet.

I temporarily had a Facebook account to see what it was about. Never posted any personal information, and quickly closed it in 2012.

Jews ruined the internet, just like finance and energy, freedom, government and civility.

The internet is for porn. The internet is for porn. Why you think the net was born? Porn porn porn. Porn is made by the Jews, they give you loads from which to choose. Who makes the money when you use? Jews Jews Jews.

Consider if you will the one dollar bill. What is on the back? A pyramid! Who built the pyramids? The Jews. What does saidit use, the pyramid of debate, who built that?

The Jews are hiding in your closet and under your bed waiting for you to lay down your head. Out they will creep while you are asleep. And you'll wake in terror with narry a peep. Then the bar mitzvah begins and they lift up your bed, and do the Jewish chair dance and dance of the dead. And when you wake in the morning what's their with a fright, your new Jewish bride and she wants a bite. For we all know as we all fear the real reason why the Jews are here. They come in their spaceships from far and away to keep those pesky cylons at bay. So rememeber this the next time you weep, you can either be a Jew or be one of the sheep.

We should all act like the Jews concerning our people. Super protective, attack any outsider who complains or threatens, do it en masse everyday. Just like the Jews.

Internet 2.0 is utter garbage, like 5-10 sites control almost all content,everywheres infested with fucking trannies and the mentally ill demanding you conform to their warped world view and let them in to your spaces only to be booted from them. Everything is fucking monetizes and riddle with more ads than Michael j fox is riddled with Parkinson's.

It's utter shit now.

I helped build the old internet. I miss it also. Our Cisco routers couldn't do shit to keep people out and there was no such thing as a DMZ or a Firewall. We had to block them individually once we discovered them in the logs.

I worked for pseudo.com and celebrated the millennium new years eve at their huge party office. They had full court basketball, arcades, several dance floors. That place was the fucking shit.
