a British engineer credited with having invented the World Wide Web in 1989

Man who DIDN'T invent the Internet/WorldWideWeb? I think I'm going to add that to my resume since everyone else seems to get away with it.

Darpa and Arpa created the internet back in 68-69.
The WWW was created as a graphical interface to what was a very difficult system to use.

I remember the day in I think ‘93 when I saw the first web browser.
We were shocked at Intel and suddenly 3/4 the building was exploring the possibilities.

The plan is backed by more than 150 organizations, including internet giants like Google, Microsoft and Facebook

Well, that makes me think it’s evil, because those outfits are.

What's next, a plan to save the banking system backed by Chase, Bank of America and Citibank? How about a plan to solve the partisan political problems, authored by Nancy Pelosi and Mitch McConnell?

“I will stand up for the preservation of the free internet that we have grown to know and love in recent decades,” German Economy Minister Peter Altmaier said...


Here’s the problem in a nutshell. When we hear “free internet”, the left and right hear two different things.

The Right: “Free internet” = freedom of speech, freedom from censorship and freedom from lynch mobs coming after you for your thoughts and speech.

The Left: “Free internet” = free porn

re: “Web inventor Tim Berners-Lee”

Did he work at work at (the early) Cisco? Or Sun Microsystems?

Did he work at DARPA?

If Google, Facebook, Reporters Without Borders, the governments of France and Germany are for it, I’m against it - whatever it is.

I hope it is to block auto playing videos and floating and winking blinking ads.

In Firefox I can go into the settings to block auto playing videos. I use ublock to block ads.

Reading the words and translating from NewSpeak I get: we have to use the Internet to dump Trump and promote leftist ideas.

Big Tech does not want individuals to decide who to trust.

We don’t need them to tell us. They need to listen.

Apply six degrees of separation. We can find out pretty fast who is trustworthy and reputable with a “user review” model like the rating you give an Uber driver.

Speaking of Facebook:

We knew this was coming....great comments on ZeroHedge on this article...Facebook mission is brainwashing, pure and simple.
