15 years ago?! This tweet must be 10 years old now
Edit: it's from 2017, that makes more sense https://x.com/AngryManTV/status/906298612786884609
It still doesn't make much sense. In 2002 people were already using torrent protocol, that allows to download files in chunks. You can download the missing 3% of your file latter. And even before torrent there was a Direct Connect protocol and DC++ client.
Sure, and all 5 people who were using torrents in 2002 were having a grand old time with them, too, I'm sure.
