CQVFEFE!! I Love it!! My 8 Track tapes are waiting for their comeback!! I'll admit, you got one over me with the "Electic Pencil Sharpener" I am jealous!
I have all that. The VHS to DVD machine cost me a lot, as my $50 one from Walmart years ago started eating tapes. I might tear it down someday, but I don't think I'll ever have the time. I also have a restored Pioneer 8-track tape player and a restored Pioneer reel-to-reel player, along with tons of tapes that still play fine. I am in the process of copying all the old tapes to the computer to remove the tape hiss and restore the high frequencies.
"We all" didn't pitch squat. I still have everything. Just like Gibbs when he and the crew were hiding out in his basement one time on NCIS. I have a dot matrix printer and a whole quart of ink and a re-inker device. I even have the 300 modem from my old Radio Shack Color Computer. I have never thrown away a piece of tech.
I hear there are ways to simulate the modem, such as with Bluetooth on an Android phone. But you can probably go to a thrift store, or better yet a ham show, and buy an old modem card or a newer external modem pretty cheap. It might be useful.
It's also not hard to implement crypto security on both ends of the dial-up connection. It's probably one of the few modes of digital communication I would trust the Deep State not to be able to crack in real time.
Actually, I think it has to do with the Dominion. I remember a report saying that the machines that were NOT connected to servers via ethernet had cell cards hard wired into the motherboard. The would have obviously been slower to transfer data, but you don't need 100 MB transfer when just changing a few numbers
My guess - t this is related to election. I guess they were using a dial up to by pass security
I've heard the theory that the white hats have saved analog communications to use if the Internet is taken down.
That is Exactly why...I still have a Land Line...
I still have a landline, fax machine, cassette tape player, CD player, DVR and VCR.
(Paper, pencils and pens, too. Electric pencil sharpener! Wooo - that one is so high tech.)
Physical media FTW!

We are in the process of moving and my husband found an old transistor radio from the 70's era. It still works...with a battery.
Sadly, depending on your provider, that land line likely still relies upon IP networks to provide service.
You maybe right Penguin...But they can NOT say " I did not try"!!
LOL me too. I have cell, but my husband refuses to use a cell phone. Thus, we still have a landline as well.
Don't you need a modem that we all pitched?

Analogue videos are definitely crucial to prove authenticity

ohhhhhh really?? I've never even considered this. Or seen it. I hope there is some solid proof.

Much like Intel's IME
