Why we need to save the web

Everybody is online now, and we can’t afford to compromise the way we communicate, share, and learn.

To Own your identity

For Ethical Remixing and References

The web supports two methods for references: Copying (plagarising), Linking (fragile)

Links on the web are one-way, aside from centralized search engines

Backlinks are prone to spam, so you are not obligated to distribute them

p2p indexers on the network can gossip to distribute backlinks

Content on the web should have a "fork" button, or "edit" if you have capability

To Connect and Collaborate without Gatekeepers

For Monetization without Big AdTech

Copyright metadata deeply associated with the content

Signed capabilities for redistribution, editing, and indexing

Ethical and conscientious objection, refusal
