“My family got a WebTV box in the ’90s. We were all sitting in the living room, figuring it out. We found a site that said it would take our photo, so we gathered on the couch in front of the TV and smiled while a countdown ticked away. When it hit zero, the screen flashed and then said to wait a moment for our photo to be processed.
We all thought this was pretty cool. After a moment, the photo loaded, and it was a picture of a chimp. That’s when we realised that it didn’t have some hidden built-in camera and we’d been had.”
That's 30 years ago...
