ICcode for "Alt.sex.bondage"

The [b]alt.sex.bondage[/b] [about=Newsgroup]Usenet newsgroup[/about] was the first publically visible BDSM resource on the Internet.

Discussions in the group popularised many components of today's BDSM subculture, including the
abbreviations [about=BDSM]BDSM[/about] and [about=TPE]TPE[/about], and maxims such as [about=Ugol's Law]Ugol's Law[/about] and [about=YKIOK,IJNMK]YKIOK,IJNMK[/about].

alt.sex.bondage was gradually overrun by spam adverts, and discussion moved to [about=uk.people.bdsm]uk.people.bdsm[/about] and 
[about=soc.subculture.bondage-bdsm]soc.subculture.bondage-bdsm[/about]. Most online BDSM discussion
is now on various [about=Discussion_boards]discussion boards and mailing lists[/about].
