For me, it was that the Internet never forgets and that you should never enter your real name. In my opinion, both of these rules are now completely ignored.

Boomers are still alive, so literally all of the rules ever as fast as possible.

Special standout for "dont believe everything you read" - "Well fuck you Ill believe everything without thought"

Play Team Fortress on weekends. It's cheaper.

only 1 hour a day! And if you accidentally click on a wrong link, the hackers can backtrace you or send the internet police.

Stick with the gopher protocol, http is too poorly implemented.

Never disclose any real personal info.

Nothing that happens on the internet matters.
