I mean back then, we could practically do whatever we what.
porn and diablo2
There was nothing restricted to us.
lol
that was my need for the internet
It was truly the wild west.
But, IRC is surprisingly active still.
ya it is
For better or for worse
I guess they could have turned IRC into something like Discord.
At the time... we had access to all of the webs.
Period.
There was no dark web or deep web.
Because they were the web.
im a distortion
BRB
Almost of all of it was deep web.
back then, the dark web, was just stuff you didnt know the link for
No, the dark/deep web have always existed
Most of the fun places weren't accessible by crawlers.
having to get the webcrawler to crawl your site
It qualifies as deep web to me if it's not public and not just indexed by search engine, you actually have to find it yourself.
I think usually to be deep web it also has to be generally inaccessible
i do remember being like 13 and the first time like 5 of us got together and one kids dad had AOL, we snuck into the AOL chatrooms late at night to just talk shit
Also, I used Altavista then.
So, an unindexed public-content site is not part of the deep web
Ask Jeeves... I remember trying to phrase things as questions as a kid
we thought we were the coolest mofos in the world those days
But e.g. every private torrent tracker is, despite having a public IP and DNS name
@TylerC Hahaha! Yeah, the shit talk in the chat rooms was funny.
People actually took it seriously.
We got this one guy really upset on this dating website.
We were pretending we were some hot chick.
@Undead Mockingbird ya at like 3am it was basically just other kids that snuck onto their parents computers
It was the first time I trolled anyone online.
YES
before anyone ever said troll
aye
and we were just assholes lol
and peopel didn't say "click" instead of navigate
