Tim Berners-Lee Sep 7, 2025

Thank you to The Observer for this thoughtful review.

“Berners-Lee is clear-eyed about the benefits and the dangers. This Is for Everyone contains some very sharp thinking about what we need to do now.”

We must fight for the web we want.

Nick Clegg strikes me as one of those people who seems quite intelligent on the surface but is devoid of perspicacity deep down inside.
He was taken to the cleaners by both David Cameron and Mark Zuckerberg.
His destiny was to become a prop and then a window ornament.
