What the internet was like? Glorious! No stupid internet points, no followers, no tracking. Just random content. Good times...
There was even a friendly purple ape named Bonzi Buddy who helped me surf the web. Couldn't have something like that these days without spyware.
The ICQ, AOL and MSN chats were a big focus then. I can still hear those notifications too. It was a simpler time before psychology was brought into hijack our attention.
They have done a excellent job of that with the latest generation of the web. It's too bad we have lost much of the soul of the early web in the process...
A/S/L?
You never saw IE6 running on Win98 with a dozen toolbars installed, did you? The place was infested and you actually needed to know what you were doing.
Antivirus would be pinging constantly back in those days. I haven't had my AV detect anything since the early 2000s.
Now you have catphishing, ransomwere, lot's of different types of scammers and your credit cards can be stolen from some random e-commerce site. You also need to know what you're doing.
Remember when we all suddenly needed personal firewalls after that one virus that kept shutting down the PC with 60 seconds notice.
