Understatement of the week. As you say, it wouldn't have been on the Internet. I know nothing about the South African BBS scene of the time but it would have been very small. And selling pornography online? How would you even have gone about that? That would have been cash transactions down in the corner. For downloading porn at 1200 bits per second.
- zymhan 11y agoI didn't take that as actually transferring the porn online, but as using the BBS to facilitate sales of physical copies.
