Oh my goodness I remember full well the early 90's internet pre-w.w.w. The lengthy dial up services over modems, the text based interfaces...I used the internet whilst at University between 1990 - 1994 and it consisted of lists of communities and forums that one could join and engage with around the world. I actually ended up with a fantastic pen pal through my Uni years because of the internet. He was an IT professional who lived in Scotland and worked at the University Of Edinburgh. When I completed my studies I got my parents to sign up for a dial-up service and I maintained contact for a while but then life happened on both sides of the pond and I went offline for a few years, and we lost touch. This is completely unrelated to your answer !LOLZ but it just jogged a memory and so I wrote haha. This is an interesting article about the evolution of the internet that I found and matches my memory of it Evolution of the Internet. As far as censorship is concerned, I think when it comes to unsubstantiated articles designed to manipulate the public or items that promote hate crimes, illegal activity and the like, then censorship should indeed be invoked. But a line needs to be engraved in concrete! People need to learn to DO THEIR OWN RESEARCH and not follow internet publications blindly. Simply because something is written, does not make it true!
