  Companies dragging their feet on deplatforming bigoted harassment is deja vu. I worked at AOL when they were slow to act on child porn trading. It took @crimmins testifying to Congress about their negligence to get them to act. Let me tell you what that was like.

  @BlaiseInKC ... IF you got reports, that ponderosa is still operating in those areas, they must’ve used a dial up service like AOL or EarthLink

  @blakeir The only policing was asking them to stay off the phone so I could dial on to AOL or MSN messenger to chat with my high school friends and argue why I had been bumped down in their top five lol.

  @SpaceX service is hands down a nerd's dream. At 37 years old, having gone from getting an AOL disk at the Grand Union to 300+ Mbps from space tickles me in a way my wife can’t.

  i don't buy the "ai search replaces Google" thesis. the data says the opposite is happening. Cloudflare Radar, may 2026: every ai chatbot — ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity — sends 0.29% of global search referrals. Google sends 87.63%. 301-to-1. Anthropic's ClaudeBot crawls 11,122 pages for every human visit it returns vs Google's 5:1. Alphabet Q1 2026 filing: Google search revenue $60.4B, +19% yoy, up from +17% in Q4. ai overviews hit 2.5B monthly users; ai mode crossed 1B. alphabet says ai overviews monetize at rates "similar to traditional search" (june 2026 investor presentation). the kill-google thesis is showing up as negative signal in the actual p&l. Perplexity — the consensus poster child — killed its entire ad business in feb (Financial Times, The Verge). ads generated $20K against $34M revenue. exec quote: "a user would just start doubting everything." a company that can't make advertising work cannot disrupt a $60B/quarter advertising business. the consensus pusher worth countering specifically — @sarahdingwang at a16z, who led Exa's $250M Series C at $2.2B in may. her line: "agents will search the web more than humans this year. soon orders of magnitudes more." historical analog — Netscape 1994-98. the next platform that would reduce windows to "a poorly debugged set of device drivers." 80% share, record ipo. microsoft bundled IE for free. netscape sold to AOL for scrap. the company that captured the value was the one everyone thought netscape would displace — Google, founded 1998 — the services layer above the commodity. counter-position: ai search isn't replacing Google. Google is becoming ai search. standalone players are fighting netscape's war while the incumbent absorbs the tech into a surface 2.5B people already use. investor read: Exa at $2.2B and Perplexity at $22B are priced for a market-share takeover the referral data says isn't happening. the smarter bet is the layer that monetizes the ai-overview expansion Google is driving.

  This makes me really sad because AX used to kick complete *** I loved it so much. I started going when I was in my mid-teens, one time I hung out with a bunch of the cast of 03 FMA because of an AOL fan chat they'd come and groupwatch the new episodes with us in, Mike McFarland bought us lunch because my friend was rude and thought we weren't paying....

  @dr_bouchard @mediainfluence9 @JuddLegum AI isn't a traditional bubble. AI is in its infancy - like looking at AOL and saying you'll never shop on the internet.

  Thank God I figured it out. Since about 7:30pm yesterday or a bit earlier, my signal dropped so low I felt like I was on AOL dialup. A hair away from unusable. Speed was 1200 baud level. I was blocked from the Internet completely using a browser. Faris’s hackers, either in the arctic or Ron’s crew across the street hacked my phone and turned on the phone’s WiFi. There was no WiFi icon on the screen that obviously would have alerted me. I found it by discovering my phones cellular connection had been changed to 5G for everything, yet LTE was showing on the screen. 14 calls to the cellular carrier in an effort to get help were canceled. Now I know by whom, and why. Last night I was on hold for twenty minutes for two separate calls with no pickup. Today I called 12 times and finally figured out a faster way to dial (don’t ask) so a few calls got through but were then disconnected, two got through to the automated help but when they transferred me to the help people the call was disconnected. And to top off this marvelous day, I was forced to file a theft report for two missing firearms. This is getting really serious. One of those firearms has a Good chance of being in the attic…… He asked to take what I thought were very questionable photos -we’ll see……….. I would not have even called the Sheriff’s department after the horrible experiences I’ve had, but as of July 1, 2026, in this county anyway, filing a report for stolen firearms is mandatory. Everyone who is a Targeted Individual needs to post every day on social medial with LINKS so more people are aware of this sick program and gang stalking. I have posted them repeatedly so look at my Posts and Replies and you’ll find them. But most importantly, NEVER, EVER, Give Up. Turn every attack, every hassle into a challenge. Become a survivor, not a victim.
