    In a few years, what we define as classic good/bad Internet won't be there.
    But then, a lot of stuff that is considered perfectly acceptable now used to be spyware/adware/malware back in the day.
    Think about software tracking your actions and giving you ads ... Then look back to 2005-2006.
