These images, and thousands like them, float on and off the Usenet. The average stay is 2 or 4 days before they disappear from public view, to reappear at unpredictable intervals in the future as in the past. If this romanticizes the subject, think of it instead as representing only part of the story. There are no rules. There is no order.
Absolute anarchy rules the internet.
Without an understanding of the net's anarchistic basis, there is no understanding the net.
