Video Report on "Internet" circa 1993

[SeanQ]

Here's a report from 1993 the CBC did about "Internet". It's amazing to see how things have changed.


"There's an interesting kind of restraint that you find. There's not a lot of cursing, swearing [...] put-downs one would expect to find. There's not screenfuls of 'go to hell', which is surprising."

"The electronic scream means you're connected to anywhere, to anyone riding the same internet circuit"
