How would the internet and digital/social media experience have been different if Tim Berners-Lee had not insisted that it be decentralized and allowed to develop in an open fashion?
Tim Berners-Lee devised the World Wide Web and decided to give it out to all for free. This move opened the way for increased creativity and collaboration. However, there are various ways through which internet and digital or social media experience would have been different had Berners-Lee not insisted on decentralization and open development. To begin with, the level of innovation would have been low (Bakaev et al., 2019). This is due to the fact that the creativity associated with the use of the web would not be there. Many people would operate on proprietary (Clark, 2018; Bakaev et al., 2019). It is only the big companies that would have been willing to make payments for licensing.
The World Wide Web provides various online services to the user. Without the decentralization of the technology, such services would focus more on consumption than communication (Clark, 2018; Bakaev et al., 2019). It is true that chat rooms and other features that allow communication would still be there. However, Twitter, Facebook and other public communication developments that make it easy to communicate to large masses would not be there. Apart from this, there would be no iPhone (Bakaev et al., 2019). Without the web, it would have not been easy to develop smartphones.
It is also important to note that it would have not been easy to develop important search engines such as Google with the centralization of the World Wide Web. As a result, internet searches would be shoddy (Bakaev et al., 2019). Such a situation is harmful to the academic world. Additionally, still there would have been an open internet that is less functional than the current one. Any expansion attempts that are web like would have attracted legal fights (Clark, 2018). Such scuffles delay the process of innovation.
