1) I pay for free sites/services I routinely use (wikipedia, FSF)

2) They put content up for free on their sites. I put a regulator on the instructions my CPU runs. They're free to detect the ad blocker and block access.

3) copyright is BS.

I miss the 90s internet.

Mostly HTML, what little java or flash there was was usually trash video games sites.

You'd search (Lycos!) for content and what you got was raw data from crazies all over the world. Not the curated "don't hurt yourself" BS hits you get in the first 100 !g results. Or 100 sites trying to sell you trash.

The 90s internet was many the best of an otherwise weak decade! (and Seinfeld, of course)

EDIT: And the content was avilable with 28k to 56k modem. Today I can't even check my email (why not??? grrr) with that.
