 ## Advanced Usage
 
-### TCP-based protocol
-
-> Stability: 0 - Deprecated: Use [V8 Inspector Integration][] instead.
-The debug protocol used by the `--debug` flag was removed from V8.
-
-An alternative way of enabling and accessing the debugger is to start
-Node.js with the `--debug` command-line flag or by signaling an existing
-Node.js process with `SIGUSR1`.
-
-Once a process has been set in debug mode this way, it can be inspected
-using the Node.js debugger by either connecting to the `pid` of the running
-process or via URI reference to the listening debugger:
-
-* `node debug -p <pid>` - Connects to the process via the `pid`
-* `node debug <URI>` - Connects to the process via the URI such as
-localhost:5858
-
 ### V8 Inspector Integration for Node.js
 
-**NOTE: This is an experimental feature.**
-
 V8 Inspector integration allows attaching Chrome DevTools to Node.js
 instances for debugging and profiling. It uses the [Chrome Debugging Protocol][].
