3 years agoMr Berners-Lee, the entire humanity is in debt for your innovation and been humble enough and kind enough not to make www blocked for commercial benefit. Others have profited out of your vision and now as you have rightfully sighted, grossly misusing to gain unfair advantage. Your call to governments and businesses to correct is almost like "asking the thief to say where the stolen goods are"! It will never happen. There is no democracy anymore. The entire world is a one big communist platform cloaked in democracy. I personally suggest, only you can find an answer to fix it. Sir, you created www. If you see the current trend as a problem and a potential issue that threaten the true meaning of democracy, then find a way to "red flag" these demonic perpetrators so the unassuming users can 'at least' know what they see and read is BS when they see it. They say "sometimes you have to break something to fix it right". Thanks again for your gift to the world!
