On 12 March it was the anniversary of the invention of the World Wide Web in 1989 by Tim Berners-Lee.
Did you know that Tim Berners-Lee 
is an English computer scientist and that the internet (as we know it) was created in Geneva, Switzerland? 
He also created the HTML language, the URL system and the HTTP protocol.
So, when you type a website address (URL) into your address bar in your browser like this:
http://www
you're actually using Sir Tim's work.
Curiously, he later regretted using the initial pair of slashes '//' on the address though - it was a design choice hated by a lot people. (Source: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/8306631.stm)

Has the World Wide Web turned the world better or worse? 
A cult of expert personality happens in a niche topic or hobby community, when well-regarded experts start to care more about image and ego than about information and education.
Here's my description of how to recognise and avoid them: https://tradescantia.uk/article/cults-of-expert-personality/
Wbito kolejny gwóźdź do trumny wolności brytyjskiego internetu. Od dzisiaj ustawa "Online Safety Act" wprowadza nowe upierdliwe wymagania na dostawców usług. Za niedopełnienie obowiązków grozi maksymalnie kara w wysokości "jedynie" 18 milionów funtów.
Niech nas latający potwór spagetti chroni od takich pomysłów w Polsce.

»Internetmeilenstein–Erste .com-Domain feiert 40. Geburtstag:
Vor 40 Jahren wurde die erste .com-Domain registriert - ein Meilenstein der Internetgeschichte. Symbolics.com markierte den Beginn der kommerziellen Nutzung des Internets, sechs Jahre vor dem Start des World Wide Web«
Ja, ja das Internet ist älter als viele es wahrhaben (wollen?). Auch für mich ist es jünger im Kopf als die Wahrheit ;)
Outgoing Broadband Chief Issues Stark Warning Against Elon Musk
> He has so far used his immense (and unelected) power to tear down regulators that oversee his business interests and force the government to contract with his companies, including ordering Federal Aviation Administration staff to find tens of millions of dollars to fund a deal with #Starlink

I did a search for something, found no definitive answer, so I wrote up a blog post that has the definitive answer (well, it worked for me) so that in the future others do not need to suffer as I have suffered...

@zbrando @morrick @ueeu You’re not wrong.
But, looking ahead, we can do so much better than the commercial domain name system.
Commercial domain names are a gold standard example of artificial scarcity. A domain name registrar cost next to nothing to operate. It’s tiny rows of text in a database. It could easily be free to own your own domain name – a huge part of what constitutes identity – on the Internet.
In fact, a non-commercial service has been operational for 24 years. It would be trivial to regulate that browsers in the EU implement support for it and work together with, say, @letsencrypt to ensure it can handle TLS.
That would be an amazing addition to the commons and a future-proof way forward that we could lead on with next to no investment.
As the NBA's ties with China thaw, Knicks star Jalen Brunson is one of several NBA players looking to establish an online presence in the country by hiring local social media managers. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/03/16/basketball/nba/nba-stars-china-media-presence/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #basketball #nba #china #jalenbrunson #socialmedia #internet
»Die Strategie hinter der digitalen Reizflut:
Desinformation und manipulative Inhalte überschwemmen die Medien und steuern unsere Aufmerksamkeit. Wie wir uns gegen die "Flood the Zone"-Strategie wehren können«
Das Medien schon immer ein Teil der Propaganda war, ist nicht neu. Doch welche von wem Finanziert wird, spielt sehr wohl eine Rolle, denn Propaganda schlägt bewusst die Hirne lahm.
Ótimo video para entender a diferença entre os conceitos de segurança, privacidade e anonimidade. Explicando que nem sempre precisa de todos. Curtinho, recomendadíssimo.
