This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

They're just trying not to lose their internet service provider probably. ISP's are even starting to threaten their residential and commercial customers alike because they can't afford the lawsuits so network tech's are starting to turn in individuals about compliance and such.
