MODERATORS
Yes, but that was purely the investors' and speculators' fault. They invested heavily in online companies and, as it usually happens in capitalism, when certain economic factors changed (rumors about failed mergers, Japan's recession etc), their stocks were devaluated and the companies defaulted.
The userbase wasn't really affected, though.
Intersting how media tryies to kill something with lame arguments.
Yeah, what kind of studies were they!
