>BRIAN I confess that I am worried about Telegram. Other than private messaging, people love to use Telegram for group chats — up to 200,000 people can meet inside a Telegram chat room. That seems problematic. How about fuck you, BRIAN?

Obviously archive.org links do not count. We have this but it redirects: https://www.google.com/google.jpg

If you like the idea of having bare-bones text-only web then you will see how everybody and their granny have a feature that they won't get onboard until it is implemented. Then at that point we will have HTML again.

The evergrowing scope of browsers, designed so only Google (and, by now, Mozilla, but only because Google allow them to exist) can create one and keep it updated.

If I have to choose between that or the immigrants exploiting the welfare state like it happens in most of the EU, imagine what I choose.

What is the excuse to have this contract censored? I understand what it's in the interest of security for example, but this...? Also, where are the people who laughed about Brexit now?

I expect to pay a reasonable price. Being overcharged by 90% is not reasonable.
