For today, I\u2019ve Appended a section predicting the attitudes\u00a0of Web 4.0.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Like it or not I think it (Web 3.0) is right around the corner, within years the new web will be staring right into our eyes and unless we change something about how we work and interact, we won\u2019t be able to look away. What does Web 3.0 mean exactly? Essentially it is the next step of behavior of the internet, this prediction is solely based on the trends of the time. To see why I\u2019m predicting the new nature of this web and what it is exactly a brief history of what we know as \u201cthe Web\u201d must be examined.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"web0.0:\u201cdidyousingulargetthat\u201d\">Web 0.0: \u201cDid you (singular) get that?\u201d<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Very small communities<\/li>\n<li>Most likely you knew a decent subset of everyone on there.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"web1.0:\u201cdidyoupluralgetthat\u201d\">Web 1.0: \u201cDid you (plural) get that?\u201d<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Scaling and everyday incorporation of email<\/li>\n<li>Small scale sharing<\/li>\n<li>Internet spreading into ubiquity (<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Eternal_September\">eternal September<\/a>)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"web2.0:\u201cdidyoumakethat\u201d\">Web 2.0: \u201cDid you make that?\u201d<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>User created content<\/li>\n<li>The ubiquitous internet<\/li>\n<li>Blogging\/vlogging<\/li>\n<li>Democratic video and music production and consumption<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"web3.0:\u201cdidyouseethat\u201d\">Web 3.0: \u201cDid you see that?\u201d<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Share everything<\/li>\n<li>The ubiquity of (the) social networks.<\/li>\n<li>All about you<\/li>\n<li>Sometimes indistinguishable from desktop experience<\/li>\n<li>The end of privacy. <sup><a id=\"fnref:1\" class=\"footnote\" title=\"see footnote\" href=\"#fn:1\">[1]<\/a><\/sup><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"web4.0:didyoufeelthat\">Web 4.0: \u201cDid you feel that?\u201d<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Either more empathetic or more tribal and toxic. Everyone is certainly aiming for the former, but social networks need to take a more firm stance towards behavior in the latter category.<\/li>\n<li>Emphasis on privacy, the EU has been making the best moves in this direction. Though not always properly, for example <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cookielaw.org\/the-cookie-law\/\">the cookie law<\/a> is a bit misguided, while <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/General_Data_Protection_Regulation\">General Data Protection Regulation<\/a> is the right one.<\/li>\n<li>Emphasis on security, penalizing companies which leak sensitive information need to be penalized more. Again the EU is making the right steps here. This goes beyond securing just private information; with the prevelance of the internet of things, this extends to systems of all sizes.<\/li>\n<li>More personal applications. The line where the Web begins and ends blurs on this point, are devices like Alexa and Google Home the Web? This is not to say more personal <em>devices<\/em> but the nature of applications on our devices will be more focused around us.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"footnotes\">\n<hr \/>\n<ol>\n<li id=\"fn:1\">This is the only thing I read from the original draft that was hyperbolic.
