    You know someone has to pay for websites right? Like If no one donated to Wikipedia they would not exist. If you want to get back to “The Real Internet” you are going to have to start hosting all your own images, blog posts, e-mail server…

      Did you just receive an email from Jimmy Wales, too?

        He emails me every year and I give him money every year.

        Wikimedia got me through all my degrees/certifications.

          The email said I hadn’t donated in two years, so I’m probably due!

      Taking away advertising doesn’t take that away. It just means websites no longer free load by wasting our free time.

      No, you wouldn’t. But also not a terrible idea. We don’t need 90% of the content online. We need most of it scrubbed.
