Ramblings: 2025

I rant about privacy quite a lot, a brief summary of my stance:

Early web The early web was diverse, personal and sometimes downright weird. If you wanted a website, you made it, and because of that, it reflected you. Because it wasn't just a couple of clicks, you had to think about it, take some time on it, put some effort in; it wasn't spur of the moment. There were visitor counters, guestbooks and webrings, if you wanted to find a site you were interested in you had to find directories or discover it via other similar websites that linked to it. There was no central index.
