Summary: Following that earlier list of suggested improvements for a freedom-respecting Internet, here’s a video and outline
THE Web has become very spammy because it was gradually taken over by the marketing industry. The news industry barely exists anymore. This afternoon in Daily Links we showed how IAM had in effect become a mouthpiece of EPO management, after bribes from Benoît Battistelli. It never said anything negative about António Campinos as if it’s a taboo subject. But that’s not even a technical issue but an editorial issue.

On the technical side, e.g. a lack of consistent experience and accessibility for blind people, the Internet as a whole got worse. There was no quality control, except by corporations which judged quality from their own narrow (self-serving) perspective.
In the video above I go through the list posted earlier and I elaborate a bit on the spot. It’s perfectly possible we’ll put it in the wiki and collaboratively improve/expand it some time in the near future. We hope to put out there some pointers not just for us but also for others to follow. █
