**2021**

- [3782198-011](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3782198-011) [failure/argued] *(failure mode)* -- Per connection pricing by ISPs penalized success: creators whose pages became popular faced charges scaling with traffic, and individuals with popular pages were forced to delete their content.
  > The ISP charged low-volume providers on a per connection basis. If your site suddenly became popular, with thousands of people constantly accessing your content, you had to pay for thousands of long-dis- tance phone calls. Individuals with popular pages were forced to delete their content.
