in a universe where everything is instantly scraped and consumed and tracked it is a quiet kind of freedom to be able to rent a domain and be able to put one-off pages on it that would only be findable by brute force enumeration of the domain. every web content system is built around not creating "orphan pages" like this, but if you are a human being online who just wants to show something to a few people, they're the best way i know how to. i feel like this would be made impossible if the web protocols were written today.
