imho the current web is broken.. it has become entirely dominated by monopolists, which will only grow larger.. more dominating

we need: - The Decentralized Web (as it was originally envisioned) - Users in full control of their own data - Privacy-first approaches only - Stricter regulation (though tough to implement well)

You have that now! Just stop giving your data to companies you don't want to have it.

The people who never give their data away wonder at the people who give their data away, then call for regulation.

sure, we have it.. but we need to use it pervasively, en masse :)

and not giving your data away is _really_ hard for average user, when google is so deeply engrained in the web
