Looks at publication title. Colour me surprised that the outlet that was pro-Hitler would also gleefully cheerlead for the death of a fast, open exchange of information. Google the words Daily Mail, Exclusive and Correct, and stand aghast at the pinnacle of their journalism.

They weren’t wrong. In 2000 the internet was kind of awful. The capabilities, the user experience, the hardware and software people were using, and the trust/security of your average online service were all terrible. Only hardcore geeks could use it effectively and not get confused or hacked.
