Internet these days according to Tim Berners- Lee

Three decades later the inventor of World Wide Web talks about his realization.

Thirty years back a proposal was sent to the boss by Tim Berners- Lee, who was a fellow then at the physics research laboratory Cern, located on French-Swiss border. The document was called Information Management- A proposal. The initial idea was to set up a system which could help in communicating about accelerates and experiments with other physicists within the centre.

The proposal included complete information to all the questions related to the system. His new system was called Mesh that combined the emerging technology “hypertext” for linking the human-readable documents together and uploading the files on multiple servers, for easy access by different people staying interconnected.

However, it didn’t work out and it took another year for Berners-Lee to start writing codes and the new proposal was called the World Wide Web.

After thirty years on the eve of the thirty-year anniversary celebration of his first proposal, he discussed the web world and how it is revolutionizing the world.

Berners- Lee raised concerns about the trouble people are facing because of the increasing popularity of internet which he has never imagined while he was building up the system for sharing physics experimented data.

Nowadays, purchasing a domain name has become very expensive. To have a presence on the web world it is very important to have a domain name. For long years people waited for something which users can access very quickly and the use of domain name gave them a better chance to do so. But now with the availability of plenty of domain names people are investing more money into it for the purpose of selling it on higher prices.

Not only that with the growing popularity of the internet it has also paved the way for scammers, thus increasing the opportunity to commit crimes. Thus, many people these days feel insecure about using the web. According to Tim Berners – Lee the web is a “mirror of Humanity”, where both good and bad is visible.

Now, the hope of his web foundation is to include governments, organizations and citizens to take an active part in reshaping the web world for betterment as per the principles are given in “Contract for the Web”.

As per the Contract, it is the responsibility of the government to ensure everyone gets connected to the internet and their privacy is well maintained. Also, companies should make the internet cheap so that users can afford that easily and also indulge in developing new technologies keeping the benefit of public first and also it is the duty of every single citizen using the internet to cooperate and use it more responsibly.

According to Berners Lee humanity for the welfare of the society depends on the codes written for the social networking site. His Contract proposal is not about fixing the problem, rather building a good relationship between people and the web world.
