Remember when the internet was just a bunch of weirdos dialing in and communicating with each other / creating documents about subjects of mutual interest? Who should have been getting paid back then?

I feel like there are some IRC channels that owe me some dividends.

The funny thing is that the content published for free by the weirdos from the past was 100x better that the ad-driven SEO crap we have today.

Also, a lot of that content still exists but it is hidden behind the SEO garbage.
