I think we all deserve to relish this moment in late 2022 and come to grips with the fact that the open web never went away. It’s been here the whole time. We were just blind to the importance of preserving it and nurturing it at all costs.
We thought corporations could learn how to be good citizens on the web, and that the benefits of “centralized” content outweighed the risks. We were wrong.
And now a MASSIVE course correction is finally underway. Finally.
@jaredwhite I'm not sure we ever really trusted corporations to be good citizens so much as we leaned into the utility and didn't consider the tradeoffs. But yeah big agree that we're all reconsidering the risks these days.
