No, not true. The internet is certainly not a free for all.
A similar but accurate statement would be that the internet
polices itself. The netizens generally know what's right and
will pool efforts to keep it that way.
When somebody is telling you that what you are doing is wrong,
whether it's spamming, or posting to the wrong list, or stealing
quotes from Road and Track, that is the internet policing itself.
