WHAT DOES RULES OF THE INTERNET
MEAN?
independent.co.uk
Contrary to what the name may imply, the so-
called rules of the internet are not laws
enforceable by any official authority. Rather,
they are a series of in-jokes, guidelines, and
references related to internet culture as it was
in the early 2000s. Many of the catchphrases
within the rules of the internet, as it exists today,
are specific allusions to memes on 4chan or
popular references to Fight Club, South Park,
and so on.
“@tarastrong It is a frightening
place, the internet. A lot of
rules as well. The two I've come
to know are Rule 34 and 63.
Scary place.”
