Are you talking about this Newsweek article?

I just remember seeing this article on news.com cira 1995 that predicted the imminent demise of the Internet due to the commercialization of it. It worried that the net just couldn't handle all the traffic from all those 56k dialup hitting and getting email all at once.

So my comment was a bit on the ironic / goofy side.

Looks like that author has continued down the path of that line of though though, if you look at the books listed on his Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clifford_Stoll#Books
