| Network founders intensify their efforts to redesign the Internet |
Tim Berners-Lee founded a startup called "Inrupt" to rethink how the global network works, expand his operating team, and launch revolutionary projects to develop a cutting-edge technology platform.
The company had previously raised a huge sum in excess of $ 10 million from technology companies and institutions and the possibilities of financing its development.
In 1989, Tim Berners-Lee, the Internet inventor, said: "All open source developers, businessmen, technical executives, and government officials all support the decentralization of the county and restore the capacity to users.
The inventor of the World Wide Web wrote in an article: "Inrupt must now focus on the complexity of converting so-called solid technology (linked social data) into a scalable platform, and we must solve the main problems of data protection, trust, and security: nevertheless the world can test the true value For the web, and we're building it. "
Invest has hired five renowned technical experts to tackle the new challenges, including veteran editor Bruce Schneier, who firmly believes in Tim Berners-Lee creating a new model. The challenge of questioning the digital feudalisation of major technology companies.
He added: "The problem is that your data is not under your control, but on a computer that belongs to many other people, and that you have no control over it and you cannot access it to your advantage." It's hard to set up an authentication process to activate Solid Technology, but he's convinced this can be done.
The company also partnered with the Greater Manchester Common Authority (GMCA) to pilot an innovative application called "early years" that provides medical records for children under 2.5 years of age.
The Solid Project aims to fundamentally change the way current web applications work, so that users through the development of a decentralized platform, including access and storage control sites, can fully control their data. And improve user-controlled privacy. Rather than the user-decentralized platform. Before other entities.
Some technology companies have excluded solid technology from academic projects because users rely on existing data platforms. Therefore, the project is unlikely to be successful.
However, some of the biggest technology companies, including Apple, Google, Facebook and Microsoft, publicly support data transfer projects that started in 2018 to create an open source data transfer platform that can be powerfully integrated.
It should be noted that Interrupt was founded in 2017 to activate the solid dispersion technology developed by the Tim Berners-Lee team at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
