This way people can't pass the links successfully between themselves. You will bust, but bigCorp will pick up the idea within days, and bring it to their users...
Somehow I don't think it'll ever get quite that bad.

But if you are right....I for one would much prefer see the internet eliminated all together. Not that that's likely to happen either.

I mean think about it, we already have television which is quite capable of providing all of the politically correct, electronic pabulum the planet will ever need to remain hopelessly bored for many, many a decade to come.

Who needs to see the same shit on their computer monitors?

Without those guys in the basement, the internet would become as worthless as tits on a bull, except of course as a money making machine for a few select multinational CEO's.
