"The data you have given us is too valuable to let other people freely read it"

"Your web browser is rendering content in a way that we think is morally wrong"

It's just pathetic at this point.

I miss the old internet, hanging out in irc channels, posting in small forums, wasting an afternoon jumping from niche site to niche site, trying to track where you were in a haze of dozens of browser windows.

@sarahjamielewis I find that some of those things can still be found in private filesharing communities. People *care* about the media they share, and discuss and go on weird tangents at length.
