Just curious.

Well, here's hoping something'll change for the better some day soon. Would be nice to have a truly free internet. Not gonna say 'safe' because humans aren't safe as far as beasties go, but at least free from these monolithic entities which want to divvy it up among themselves...

Thanks for the heads-up, but I don't really care who likes or hates me, either:)) This is the internet, someone will always hate me for some reason or other:))

Also, may have been me, I remove the auto-upvote from anything I post.

i was lucky enough to experience this back in the 1990's and it was FANTASTIC!

Not sure if I wish I could have experienced it, too, or to feel lucky I have no terms of comparison with better times, honestly... Seeing things one loves slowly turn to crap is always a painful affair...
