Consoom Pre-Internet
(media.scored.co)
Maybe it's just because I was too young for that time, but I feel like pre-2005 was more like the Wild West of the Internet. Its Golden Age was immediately after, maybe 2005-2010. At this point, websites were basically as technologically sophisticated as they are now but ads weren't cancer yet, censorship wasn't standard, and people were generally more relaxed with their interactions, ie you could call someone a faggot without creating an angry mob.
