Just a heads up:

> By using this service, you acknowledge that terminal sessions may be logged for educational and debugging purposes. No personal data is collected beyond your IP address.

Is this all open source and is the code available? So that we know where the data is truly going?

Hard to trust it if it isn't fully OSS.

This is a cool demo though.

I don't want them to see my blunders in the chess game I lost against the 40 year old computer program.

It would be an excellent phishing attack if your target is senior IT. You filter out every non-geek, of course, and certainly your responses would lean heavily toward an older crowd. They's all see 'Unix v4', be too excited to consider the risks, and being a 1973 OS assume it is innocent and safe (not thinking about the platform delivering it).

Maybe you'd get too many retirees ...

And even more to the point: this is a website. What is he afraid of this website doing that all the other websites don't already do? Why single this one out?

It's an emulated PDP-11, could you elaborate on the threat model here?

I get that companies are being gross about logging everything online, but come on. It's okay to have fun.

Who in their right mind is using this for anything other than curiosity's sake?

Little bit of banking on an emulator on a random website, why not?

Yeah it’s unlikely that this site will collect any meaningful data and it’s unlikely that you lose any meaningful data by playing with a virtual unix from the 70ies.

You aren’t getting downvoted enough.
