i'm writing a short story based on some weird experiences i had as a teenager in the mid 2000's on a couple rizon chats about rom hacks and translations. i was kind of curious what the privacy environment was like in IRC chats around 2002-2006 or so.
obviously something like mirc is going to keep logs on your machine, but was it common for channels to keep logs, maybe not for general chats but among communal projects like rom hacks? would those logs still be around, and what kind of privileges would be necessary to access them?

Do the channels still exist? Rizon kept even fewer logs then and even if the channel did most likely they only kept them for so long. You would be surprised what you could fine on archive.org or old paste sites. A lot of times if there was drama on a channel someone would copy/paste or screenshot. Good luck.

ok thanks, i'm not looking for the logs in the chats i was actually in, i was more curious how this stuff worked so that the story seemed plausible

IRC is shit, you're misremembering whatever happened to you, as in you only remember the good parts.
Privacy was not an issue before 2010 because the entire thing is made up journalist clickbait. Proof on this is nobody cares when massive credit card databases get dumped but if you even slightly feel that the fact that you like something could have been leaked, you've been taught to lose your shit.
You think you're some "tech expert" when you pretend to get involved in pseudo political privacy campaigns except it actually makes you an even bigger normie.

My bad. Consider talking to the operators then. If anyone knows it will be them.

How does it feel to be contributing to the lower quality of the board? Why pretend to be this retarded?
