- mindcrime 14y agoGreat, you lose one minor annoyance, and the rest of us deal with the fallout of a broken Internet. Sounds like a great tradeoff to me. What is it with modern times, where people are willing to sacrifice fundamental things, like applications that adhere to standard protocols, to gain some minute level of relief from something that's just "annoying"?
