  • In the mid 90s I set up a dedicated dial-up line to an ISP. I had arranged with the ISP to have a dedicated phone line of my own so they were cool. The phone company on the other hand was kind of pissed and tried to threaten me with penalties. I kind of understood why it was a problem for them in terms of provisioning, but... that's what there was then.

  • It would almost be better if they kept it because they agreed with it. In fact they don't care about the content. They care about "engagement", which is the same reason you got terrible content on Facebook, pre-Elon Twitter, etc. Anything that made clicks was good. Promoting hate because it's profitable is one of those "banality of evil" moments.

    Edit: I'm not saying post-Elon Twitter is better. He's promoting hate for a different reason.
