Yes, it still isn't, we all know that. But we all also know that it was MUCH more unreliable then. Everyone's just being dishonest to try to make a point on this.

I'm more talking about the conversation around it, rather than its absolute unreliability, so I think they're missing the point a bit.

It's the same as the "never use your real name on the internet" -> facebook transition. Things get normalized. "This too shall pass."
