the dogged researchers and enthusiasts at The Serial Port channel on YouTube have found what is likely the last existing copy of Archie. Archie, first crafted by Alan Emtage while a student at McGill University in Montreal, Quebec, allowed for the searching of various "anonymous" FTP servers around what was then a very small web of universities, researchers, and government and military nodes. It was groundbreaking; it was the first echo of the "anything, anywhere" Internet to come. And when The Serial Port went looking, it very much did not exist.

A new type of "Zombie Trainer" has emerged. These are people who work as data labelers, content moderators, or image data collectors without their knowledge. Captive audiences, like refugees, children, prisoners, and low wage workers are all Zombie Trainers, unaware of the hidden tasks they perform, the new industries they’re building, or the communities being harmed in the process.
