Chuck Gaffney (@princetrunks) reported from Rocky Point, New York@Grummz Companies need to get over the 20th century mentality that office work needs to always be on site. Problem is many large companies still have admins who use faxes, think the internet is still AOL & who think knowing anything about computers & the internet is, "for nerds"...

Mayank Agrawal (@mayankagrawal) reportedShould we need to pay for email? In 2006, AOL and Yahoo announced priority delivery for senders willing to pay somewhere around a penny per message, with the promise that those messages would bypass the spam filter. The diagnosis behind it was correct. Email often breaks because sending is free, and when volume costs nothing, volume becomes the strategy (hello AI outbound!). Everything built afterward (filters, blocklists, sender reputation scores) is an attempt to patch a problem that is fundamentally about economics, and not about technology. Today, the same dynamic plays out on a much larger surface. AI agents can complete forms, take surveys, open accounts, and browse sites at a scale that would have been unimaginable for a spam operation twenty years ago, and most of that activity still registers in company dashboards as ordinary human demand. What I find most encouraging about Proof of Human is that this doesn't require the previous tradeoff. There's no toll, no puzzle, and nothing for a genuine visitor to notice or solve, because verification runs continuously in the background across the whole session rather than at a single checkpoint. When a decision does get made, there's a record behind it that a team can actually inspect, rather than an opaque score they're asked to trust. The email industry spent two decades learning that you can't tax your way to trust, and that authentication works better than obstruction. That lesson is worth carrying into whatever comes next.

Sergio Vengeance 🇺🇲🎮🤘 (@SergioVengeance) reported@JoelKatz @RealZaikTorek @Awk20000 Not to mention the very first big section 230 case was about AOL and them being too slow to censor a malicious troll who was spreading confirmed lies that led to harassment. So even if the argument is "the website didn't censor this" then that's a core Section 230 argument.

Unacceptable Nuck (@UnacceptableN) reported@Martyupnorth We paid for AOL for 3 months and ended up getting 18 months free. If you paid even once and then called to cancel so you could use a free trial, they just gave you another month free. Those free trials kept coming. How did they make money?

Bill Bishop (@niubi) reportedThis pro-PRC model industry group from Silicon Valley is interesting but I think not thinking long-term. Why can’t the frontier labs do something like AOL did with its Greenhouse project and say OK, I will let you distill but we want equity in your company and/or a fee. AOL got equity for promotion/placement on the screen. (we committed 30+ million at MarketWatch, helped traffic and the ipo a lot, but worst company I have ever negotiated with). Anyway, apologies for the digression, but why couldn’t this be similar but for distillation access, and the labs like Anthropic and OpenAI could end up with a really interesting portfolio of companies, some of which might become quite valuable, and those smaller firms’ VCs could also benefit? Otherwise, does it really make sense for a huge swathe of the American technology industry to end up dependent on PRC models? Haven’t we learned any lessons from other industries where PRC firms have been able to come in at a very low cost with good products and effectively create dependencies that crowd at all other competitors? And now we are talking about the most transformative industry in many years, and it could be even worse if it’s built in part through some problematic practices in terms of distillation attacks and export control violations, if some of US government’s and frontier labs’ claims are true?

SomeBitch (@Nikkideemus) reported@Brownbeingg There is an old horror movie from when I was a teen in the 90’s and parents were convinced this type of thing would happen to us. It’s called Strangeland(on tubi). I got caught in one AOL chat and my parents put me on AOL kids until I was 17. It was LOCKED DOWN.
