So the question is are you really surprised about where we are today?

Or was it inevitable given the way we did business?
Not really, I knew some corporations would try to take over the internet and grease a bunch of politicians but luckily the internet has lots of friends and will can fight it.

I knew content would eventually be free and that advertising and quality unique content would be the next big money maker.

Everyone knew niche was how to stay through a recession and it proved accurate.

I did think someone would come up with a better content protection system, something that doesn't require a download. But I can't talk since I couldn't do it myself.

And I always knew GFY would stay the adult board leader.
