Telehack

Telehack is an online simulation of a stylized interface for ARPANET and Usenet, created anonymously in 2010.^[1] It is a full multi-user simulation, including 26,600+ simulated hosts with systems, directories, games, thousands of files, programs, and Bulletin Board Systems (BBS)^[2] spanning the years 1985 to 1990.^[3]

Users can connect via telnet, ssh or in a web browser to explore a pre-Web 1.0 archive of files, documents, scripts and newsgroup posts saved from BBSes thanks to textfiles.com.^[4]
