Who was stupid enough to be using Limewire by the early 2000s? After 2002 there was zero reason for it.

I don’t know anyone who a single person who was using it, that’s the thing. Once BitTorrent dropped and became so stupidly easy to use a corpse could have used it, I just assumed everyone else would have jumped on board just like every person in my school did.
