the first website ever … and their furture

Tim Berners-Lee, a British scientist, invented the World Wide Web (WWW) while working at CERN (in 1989)

the current principales like “Respect and protect people’s privacy and personal data to build online trust” are listed at contractfortheweb.org

try out the first website at CERN – and in the entire world – was dedicated to the World Wide Web was hosted on it’s NeXT computer – using line mode browser simulator

The web was always meant to be a platform for creativity, collaboration, and free invention – but that’s not what we are seeing today

Berners-Lee

He and John Bruce founded back in 2018 a privacy focused company, the main idea is that user can control their data in online storage entities called Personal Online Data Stores (Pods) – the Enterprise Solid Server was launched to provide that service to customers

“Internet, a new human right” on one hand the EU discuss at a round table with Berners-Lee about the principles of internet @EU-Press – on the other hand initate a law about the “challenges” and “balance” about encryption (similar to the five eyes)

better veil mit privacy

veil is a system to make private browsing more private – wang, an mit graduate student, said:

…the fundamental problem is that [the browser] collects this information, and then the browser does its best effort to fix it. But at the end of the day, no matter what the browser’s best effort is, it still collects it…

it doesn’t require any modification on the browser, because it doesn’t rely on browsers – a compiler can create a veil version of a site

veil was presented at the network and distributed systems security symposium or read at mit news  

google knows

“google knows everything” – bots basically crawl the internet to fill a database, it’s about content, statistics, locations and people’s gender, age, a lot more …

websites use google analytics to optimize their page – ip, browser, os, etc. is reported to google, no personal information transfered, but with this characteristics a template could created – example: when login a forum, specialized to financial advices, you could get extra credit offers or you searched for tenancy law, new flat offerings aren’t displayed – technical feature like ip masking are as save as google take care about their responsibility

… they have the almost ability to predict the future, like:

larry page – google founder, alphabet ceo, mentioned “we are no longer living in a mobile-first world, we are in a mobile-only world.” – mobile changed already from second to first screen in web usage

sundar pichai – google ceo, said ai is “one of the most important things that humanity is working on. It’s more profound than, I don’t know, electricity or fire,” – ai (artifical intelligence) already found a way in today’s smartphones, it is the biggest tech trend of 2018

about your privacy in google hands – you can have a look what google knows about you at history.google.com/history or display saved passwords – facebook also knows o.O
