@evanplaice That's not why OSI model is not used. In the 90s TCP/IP took over because the standardization process for TCP/IP was much faster than for OSI protocols. ISO simply took too long in defining OSI and most of the people did not appreciate the length of time it took so TCP/IP took over.

I suspect some people use disliking to eliminate videos they don't want suggested to them by YouTube.

NB I'm not one of those douches who makes an off the cuff witty joke disregarding the people who disliked the video. However I'm confused about who would dislike this? Why would you even be watching it in the first place?

@evanplaice - For fuck sake no one cares what you have to say! No need to type over 20 comments...

[Zen Bañez]

yes, except in this case the newspaper is the size of a dust, it sits in your pocket, you don't need to do a thing to transfer it and the more you give away, the more you get back!

As far as I could understand in data dissemination we neither need to control nor manage it. Think of a newspaper, after it's printed out and sold all over the country we can't tell where it's located because it's everywhere. You can ask a friend to lend you a copy of todays news and you end up trusting the copy because it looks like todays news, i.e. the data has a name. Well in this case the appearance has the function of a (cryptographic) name.
