Not in full agreement with this, but having a rough idea of the different leverages you can use for optimizations is worthwhile.
I admit I miss webrings indeed. They were great to discover new blogs with nice content.
Welcome in France, a country scared of its own population where the police uses facial recognition illegally. But don't worry, we can expect attempts to make it legal in the coming months or years instead of addressing the problem. Will it make it less shameful? I don't think so.
