RationalWiki's 2019 Fundraiser

There is no RationalWiki without you. We are a small non-profit with no staff – we are hundreds of volunteers who document pseudoscience and crankery around the world every day. We will never allow ads because we must remain independent. We cannot rely on big donors with corresponding big agendas. We are not the largest website around, but we believe we play an important role in defending truth and objectivity.

If everyone who saw this today donated $5, we would meet our goal for 2019.

Fighting pseudoscience isn't free.
We are 100% user-supported! Help and donate $5, $20 or whatever you can today with PayPal Logo.png!

Donations so far: $3220Goal: $6000

Cat:Internet laws? Really? Was it Arpanet where he formulated this? ħumanUser talk:Human 23:55, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

Telegraphs, more likely. If we have a better category, go for it. --Gulik (talk) 22:21, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
I think it's "internet law" because that has somehow evolved as the shorthand for any eponymous law. Scarlet A.pngpathetic 22:39, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
Who even says this is an eponymous law? More like a quote that someone at RW likes. There are lots of piquant Sinclair quotes, and as far as I can tell with a few moments of webresearch, none of them is called a "law" anywhere but here. Sprocket J Cogswell (talk) 20:52, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
