Marking the 30th anniversary of the World Wide Web, its designer Tim Berners-Lee says the fraying Web needs to rediscover its strengths and grow into maturity
Tim Berners-Lee, known as the inventor of the World Wide Web, addresses the attendees during the opening of the Web Summit technology conference in Lisbon, Monday, Nov. 5 2018.
“They are all stepping back, suddenly horrified after the Trump and Brexit elections, realising that this web thing that they thought was that cool is actually not necessarily serving humanity very well,” he said. People who had grown up taking the internet’s neutrality for granted now found that the administration of US President Donald Trump had “rolled that back”.
“If we give up on building a better web now, then the web will not have failed us. We will have failed the web”, he wrote.But he was optimistic because of a strong resolve among governments to avoid balkanisation of the Internet, and a strong resolve among people in social networks who had - surprisingly - been shocked at people trying to hack elections.
