You wouldn’t have been able to post that if Al Gore (or someone else) hadn’t pushed to have it opened up to everyone except government, education, and computer companies as it was when I first started using it in the 80s. AND, it was like that before Al Gore changed the world in the 90s. There were what were called “flame wars” on Usenet. There were flamers, trolls, and spammers back then.
