It’s safe to say that if we had the original HTTP specs applied for #eCom, we wouldn’t have companies like PayPal, Shopify or Stripe anywhere near their current prominence. It’s likely we wouldn’t even have the trillionaire. The importance of #OpenStandards. https://panteracapital.com/http-402s-modern-makeover/ #FinTech

Just want to say thanks. Your voice, important leadership and message is valued, being heard and heeded by many!
