What is Web3, and is it the future of the internet?
Some crypto enthusiasts want a new kind of internet that yanks power away from Big Tech and hands it to people. Can they succeed?
--
Remember AOL chatrooms and downloading songs through Napster? The internet has come a long way.
Today, it’s dominated by Meta, Google and a handful of other tech giants whose services have made it easier for billions of people to communicate and share content online.
But at what cost? “If something is free, you are the product,” so the saying goes - the only reason platforms like Facebook and KZread can offer their services for free is because they use our personal data to target us with ads.
“Right now, you have big organizations who are controlling your data and providing you services that use your data,” says Bertrand Perez, chief operating officer of the Web3 Foundation.
Web3 is a hypothetical, future version of the net based on blockchain technology. Crypto enthusiasts say their vision for the web would decentralize it, pushing it closer to its roots. But big-name detractors - from Jack Dorsey to Elon Musk - aren’t convinced.
Watch the video to learn more about Web3 - what it is, and what its future may be.

I have my doubts, perhaps someone in the comment section can enlighten me? 1) Are Web3 and cryptocurrencies as decentralised as marketed? - As mentioned in the video, how about the venture capitalists and liquidity providers behind the projects? - Terra Luna is the most recent example proving that certain cryptocurrencies are actually controlled by a few people, perhaps even more centrally controlled than major companies like Alphabet and Meta. 2) Is decentralisation really better? - Right now, we know which companies to blame if something goes wrong. - Does giving all kinds of developers access to Web3 guarantee a better product? "Too many cooks spoil the soup", isn't it? - I find it especially funny when people say that Web3 and cryptocurrencies should not be regulated. However, when something goes wrong (e.g. Terra Luna), their first reaction is to cry and run to the regulatory agencies. 3) Many claimed that having data stored in the blockchain is more secure, but cryptocurrency scams seem to be so common and sometimes irreversible.

Web 3.0 has barely reached infancy stage yet. It’s likely we’ll see a mix of decentralized and centralization over the coming years. Technology never stands still and that includes the internet. It will evolve somehow, that’s a given. It’s probable this tech will be part of that evolution

We have enough issues with centralized databases, so distributed databases are better ? Loool. None of what's discussed requires a Blockchain, nor take any advantage from a Blockchain that cannot be duplicated in the cloud.

6:31 "Yes we are here to invest, and we want the project to grow. We want to participate in the governance but there's room for others to participate into it." I would say that's a good way to see VC investments in the web 3 world --> About this, are there any ways in practice to restrict VC's participation in the token governance?
Great graphics and animations!
It's the exit plan in times of chaos that's the key. More crowd focus should be on that.
decentralization sounds like a gun act in usa, just imagine give control to people oh yeah they are just gonna messed it up
Hello man, I want to ask?? now that there's is a new web development giving owner of data. How is it different from the dark web?? I just recently learned about web3 so I'm not what role does the dark web plays now?
Maybe this can work for a few things but most actions require authentication or authorization. So if everything is decentralized who is responsible for identifying/verifying you? It doesn't sound this is possible with Web3?

The way the redhair brother explain this it is smooth...
There are always less people who try to make changes and adopt first by taking risk. Majority follow later and make the previous risk takers profitable. Remember magic internet money?
I don't know if you realize it, but they lied to you when they told you web2 was centralized, use some program to record the number of host sites involved when connecting to a site and you will find there is tons of sites all over the net being contacted, there is nothing even remotely "centralized" about it in the way we normally use the word.
youve failed before youve started and im loving it
Web3 about to be killed by Web5 even before it matures.

Want to decentralization? Grant regular people with power to choose between IP Public/IP Private. Boost Open Source project and Open Standard. Those are a feasible way to decentralize.

Make it complicated..
Problem nowadays is, web3 is expensive
I think web 7 in future would be advanced think in are minds
me: Pays for KZread but it's free. also me: I disappoint myself.
So in Web3, we're going to go back to crummy ads?

How about NATIONALIZING the Internet, making it as a non-profit utility as opposed to it being held and dictated by corporate service providers? There are many other options for “de”-centralizing.

These years are the early days of the internet. I truly believe this is the exact equivalent of the Web 1.0 in 1994.
Yeah, ask the big corporation owners what web3 is! That's not stupid! Of course they're not gonna trash talk about it!!

This doesn't solve squat. If you want to avoid all centralization, just run and host your own site on your own server. Simple. No need of all of this. People have been hosting their own stuff for ages without any weird blockchains or what not.
