[GoLUG] We left the World Wide Web …

[David Billsbrough]

This is from the below listed web page:

> We left the World Wide Web…

> We left the World Wide Web for commercial magazines and we got advertisements. We left the World Wide Web for eCommerce and got cookies and tracking,
> so that they can tell us we’ve forgotten products in their shopping cart, or send ads to follow us after we’ve just purchased that exact same thing. We left the
> World Wide Web for centralized blogging platforms and we lost control of our code, relying on pre-built templates. We left the World Wide Web for social media
> and we got locked in to algorithm driven walled-gardens, and we don’t even have a wall any more, we have a stream and all manner of refuse flows through it.
> We left the World Wide Web when we decided that user visits and going viral was more important than just writing good content, even if only five other people
> in the world found it useful.
