Artifact #5

This podcast completely surprised me, not in a million years would i have thought that many of the things that we use on the internet every single day were created because of pornography. Things like being able to use a credit card to pay for things online that people use regularly was created to pay for porn sites. Not only the ability to use credit cards came from pornography, but also the ability to watch videos which was very surprising to me. I mean today when people get bored they go look at youtube, or even in todays world we can live stream video. Without pornography would we be able to do this? That is the question that amazed me the most. In the podcast it said that many of our social networks use some things taken from the porn sites, like chat rooms.
