telnet predates www

ssh

irc predates www

A properly secured personal server, however expensive as it may be, would leave you alright as long as any connections you make don't last too long

the centralized torrent sites yes are www based, but the torrent protocol is not it's direct IP to IP

torrent can send one packet to multiple IP's however

torrent = flood

heheh

Hehe

I used to use napster way back when

1 hour for 1 mp3

meanwhile my wife was using a casette tape at the time to record songs from the radio in 3 minutes

in the 1990s digital was SLOW

but all of those things wouldnt be possible without the www, would they

analog was FAST

irc existed before www

bbs existed before www

serial network games existed before www

war dialing existed before www

email existed before www

I invited my friend haha

World wide web

@Human Sheeple Yes, but all those things that predates the www can only be possible because of the www. Duh.

world wide web is 90's
