The early internet was literally anarchy, that was one of the things that made it such a great place.

The new web is commercial, monitored, controlled.

One of the few sites that I'll always remember discovering. Around a decade ago i wandered over in the middle of the night. Almost in awe I was there until the sun came up.

If I remember correctly he traded the BTC to another user who then put the pizzas on his credit card
