ZD: I believe that you miss a very big point in the whole process. The rabbonim of the Asifa view the entire concept of Parnassa in general, and specificly outside the insular community, as a big b’dieved, if not outright assur.
Based on that mindset, the internet should not really be used for work either. Anything the removes Yidden from the outside world is inherently good.
Now try to understand the asifa & rabbonim in that context. It makes much more sense.
