Introduction
Il n’existe pas vraiment de règles pour régir Internet, à part les quatre règles standard qui mettent tout le monde d’accord (règles 1, 2, 33, 34, et 35) plus quelques autres règles inventées d’on ne sait où.
Les règles 12 et 13, cependant, sont appliquées universellement et sans pitié, que vous soyez d’accord ou non et la réputation de certaines personnes est régulièrement détruite lorsque ces règles sont brisées.
Même si les règles 8 et 9 s’appliquent spécifiquement à /b/ sur 4chan, en réalité elles s’appliquent à n’importe quel forum modéré sur Internet.
Plusieurs de ces règles font office d’observations à la philosophie Internet : elles ne décrivent pas comment les gens doivent se comporter en ligne mais plutôt comment ils se comportent véritablement.
C’était aussi le cas sur Usenet – avant /b/ – qui avait pour réputation d’être moins hostile : elles peuvent être considérées comme un artifact important de l’histoire d’Internet

J’ai bien conscience que je viens probablement de tuer un peu d’innocence chez chacun des gens qui ont lu cet article…
En effet…
