At one point I was doing support calls for a small regional ISP, and a customer called in about some alt.binaries. group with bestiality in the name.

Apparently the feed was behind or something, and he was personally offended.

I learned a lot of things that day, none of them good.

That was a definite trial by fire period of accessing the internet. I imagine there exist similar areas today but I’m experienced enough to know I don’t need to go in search of them.
