"I’ve always believed the web is for everyone. That's why I and others fight fiercely to protect it. The changes we’ve managed to bring have created a better and more connected world. But for all the good we’ve achieved, the web has evolved into an engine of inequity and division; swayed by powerful forces who use it for their own agendas.
Today, I believe we’ve reached a critical tipping point, and that powerful change for the better is possible - and necessary.
This is why I have, over recent years, been working with a few people at MIT and elsewhere to develop Solid, an open-source project to restore the power and agency of individuals on the web."
Tim Berners Lee created the world wide web in 1990, while working as external contrator for CERN. I'd be curious as to what degree the inflationary use of Twitter and other social media by Donald Ivanovich Trumpowski has prompted JB Lee to suddenly become so critical.
