Silly title and claim.

Web3 is inclusive in the fullest sense of the term. It does not care if you are a bro. It doesn't even know if you are a bro. It doesn't care where you live, what your name is, what your opinions are, what your hair or skin color is, what your credit score is. Nothing. Anyone and everyone on planet Earth can use it. This is not true of traditional banking and other web2 services. Where people get locked out or denied entry every day by central actors.

Furthermore, all activity is transparent. Everyone can see the database. History can't be altered and the rules can't suddenly be changed. We have no real transparency into the stock market, banks, twitter.com. They can and do selectively edit their databases and change the rules at will. The public can't audit what they are doing. They public can audit the blockchain. The more our institutions become corrupt, the more important transparency and full inclusivity is.

Out of curiosity I checked your account, and you have only posted in favour of web3 since the beginning (3 months ago).

It's a bit strange IMO when someone shows absolutely no doubt on a topic that is so divisive and controversial.

anyway: anyone on planet Earth can use the web too, proof is everybody already does.

Only to those that hold the tokens. Web1 and Web2 seem to be more inclusive.

How is web2 more inaccessible than web3? Also banking is accessible to more people than the internet. The vast majority of unbanked aren't unbanked because they don't have access to banks but because they are so poor that they have no need for banks. How will crypto/web3 help those people?

> Furthermore, all activity is transparent.

Fuck no!

The transaction logs, events and spends are all public. It is very transparent.

I wasn't saying that it wasn't. I was saying that I don't want all of my internet activity to be publicly available.

Only to those who hold internet-capable computing devices. Newspapers seem to be more inclusive.

Wow, that sounds like a stupid comparison doesn't it.

And web1 and web2 are somehow not accessible to those people? How?

How would someone without an internet-capable computing device access web1 or web2?
