@TryshHQ @atomicpoet @timbray The history of how Usenet culture was overwhelmed is instructive IMHO. Much of the same culture we have in the fediverse today we had in Usenet back before AOL connected to the internet. The major influx of the "mass market" destroyed that culture quite quickly. It didn't even require #surveillence capitalism. And usenet architecturally was quite similar to the fediverse as a federation of locally administered peers.

Has anyone else seen this yet about this shady #PacketForensics company in Florida? They were recently given indirect control of a massive IP space (175 million IPs or 1/25th of the entire internet!) on behalf of the DoD, without the knowledge of the public of course. This amount of IPs is a larger amount than what China manages or any American ISP. It's always good to know what the #criminals are up to ^_^
