I remember watching a VH1 or maybe it was a History Channel documentary about either the computer or the internet and they said when they first had internet at colleges and/or universities, computer geeks used to send porn to each other but the only problem was their computer was like only 2K bite of memory so the picture was made up of text characters like "X's" and "O's" And I was wondering like if the professors at the colleges and/or universities got hold of what they were doing then they might of tried to put a stop to it - aka censorship. It was a documentary I vaguely remember and I forgot what decade, it could had been the 80's.
Did it occur to you that maybe he was referring to some other instance of censorship, not necessarily involving the internet?
