When I first got involved with the Internet in about 1993 it was FORBIDDEN to distribute ANY commercial content. It was intended for educational purposes ONLY. HOW did that 'rule' change? Was it because there was no organized group to monitor and penalize the offenders??? ALL commercial content was considered spam, and you'd supposedly be blocked from Internet access.

What happened to the purity of the web?

And I was further outraged about 2 years ago,  when some commercial/gov't? entities decided they would control, filter and block the free exchange of info, which, I was informed, was the initial intent! Now it's all about making money; the very opposite of what was originally acceptable!!!Early adopter 1993 (talk) 08:47, 28 October 2015 (UTC)
