It isn't a personal conversation if it's going through an intermediary.

- 0x44 19y agoYou're not having a personal conversation with someone else over bits, you're having that conversation with someone else through an intermediary, specifically the hardware of your respective ISPs and any other third parties between whom the packets route. That isn't so much a personal conversation, as a very accurate game of Telephone. As an aside, I apologize for not responding sooner, I did not know how to find my old posts.
