I miss the old days when "internet" was written as Internet,
with an uppercase "I".

It is nowadays a habbit or better not known that in many
English Internet Web publications authors write "i"nternet,
which is not correct, but these authors have no clue and
have no human proofreaders as they can't afford them.

I miss the days when "internet" was written as "internetworking",
with TCP and UDP being experimental, as yet un-named protocols.

Nothing, other than that Windows and iPhones incorporate support for internetworking protocols.

Topic drift has been a feature of Usenet since I started using it
in the early 1980s and is unlikely to change at this late date.
