    The closest I ever got to this story was working help desk in 1996. A user called up saying they had deleted the Internet.

    Took me a while to understand he dragged “the Internet” to the recycle bin on the desktop.

      Was it Jen? She was entrusted to take care of the Internet by Roy and Moss, and she did a piss-poor job of it.

      There was actually a german ad about this quite some time ago: a grandma did this, then called her grandson “i think i just deleted the internet”.

      How the ad continued? No clue.

      What it was advertising? No clue.
