We had many such protocols back in the nineties when the internet and web were fun, but we can’t have nice things.

Yes, this was a jaded-gen-xer-get-off-my-lawn moment.

So I'm 33, I was on computers from windows 3.1 and up. I got a sweet sweet taste of old computing and old internet. Want to go back.

Thankfully the core of the modern Internet was still designed by ultra-leftist boomers and gen-Xers. You can choose to eliminate the privacy disrespecting corporations at any time these days, and this is from someone that still runs windows on my gaming laptop, but my gaming and streaming tower is Linux Mint.

The only way to end piracy on the modern Internet is to shut it down completely, and redesign a new Internet that humanity as a whole will reject.
