The Internet has come a long way since its invention in 1989, and in this era of growing concern about the privacy of Internet users, Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the World Wide Web, has once again come forward to reclaim our control over our data.
Tim Berners-Lee has developed a 'Solid Pod / Personal Online
Data Store' under his startup Interrupt, which will allow people to store and
access their data in one place instead of multiple applications and websites.
What applications or people can access their data?
In this regard, Tim Berners-Lee says that users can buy a
Pod powered by the web service Amazon or, if they have a little technical
understanding, run it themselves. Ensuring privacy and self-control over it.
They say that with this pod, not only your data is protected
from big corporations and governments, but it will also be protected from being
stolen by hackers.
Berners-Lee said, "I think we've come to realize that
the importance of the web is because of the data on it, which is not only like
a big warehouse, but also profitable for attackers, and this new Nowadays you
are worried about the security of your data.
Tim Berners-Lee hopes that the platform will give internet
users back their lost control over data.
He believes that people are very concerned about their
privacy, and in fact, internet platforms not only have access to a lot of data,
but also misuse it.
"I think people are helpless in the face of these
corporations and they don't have enough power to stop it, so they need to be
put back in a position where they have complete control and authority over
their data," he says. .
