When physicist Sir Tim Berners-Lee was developing what we know today as the World Wide Web, he was looking to overcome collaboration hurdles: “Inefficiency through incompatibility and lack of interoperability.” As he said during his keynote at this year’s virtual WeAreDevelopers World Congress, he looked at the internet as an opportunity for “global, distributed creativity” that is universal and “independent of languages or type of document, independent of culture, independent of disability or ability.”

In his talk, Sir Berners-Lee presented his vision of the next stage of open source data processing and how you, yes you, can leverage it to make secure data transfers on your own terms.

Berners-Lee also envisions where you can decide to contribute your data to certain projects and research including machine learning training.

And then you can let people pick up that app and add it to their pods.”
