@DT- you mention JWs not being very internet savy and that they type in the exact domain. That is so true. My JW brother refuses to have the internet in his house. The only web site he thought JWs have is watchtower.org. When I would send him info from jw-media.org he would reject it. it was not an "official" jw site to him. Since then I have called his attention to mention of it and to jw.org in the YB. He pretends he was aware of them all along. He feels any sites about JWS (aside from those) are apostate sites and he feels that the internet contains "the deep things of Satan". He says he is not interested in nor does he believe anything that is on the internet.

My JW friend also refuses to have the internet in her house. Is this internet phobia more of a word-of-mouth JW thing, or is it in print? I've seen a couple of mentions of the internet in the literature, but it was usually fairly general like: you can't believe everything on the internet, or there's some immoral stuff, etc. Ok that's true, but I wonder how they go from those generic statements to refusing to have it in their houses.
