Well a lot of hacking could also be avoided if everything were just plain publicly-accessible static files. Which is what they're talking about with IPFS.

But that would be a very different web from today's, where most content comes from dynamic CMS/CMF, blog software, forum software, or other web apps. It addresses things like the old personal homepage of the mid-90s, but not much at all about the modern web.

It also doesn't address the major outages (like we've seen with cert revocations or DNS outages, etc.)
