This is the first in a three-part series about how the Web—as well as the broader Internet—is going to change over the coming months and years. It will be heavily informed by my experience in games, which I’ll write about a lot; but also by my earlier background as an early Web pioneer. If you're new to my substack, welcome! I write about the games, virtual worlds and the intersections with artificial intelligence, spatial computing and the metaverse.
I agree with you. I’m curious what you think, as the “Answer Engine” moves closer to the user, how this looks in terms of protecting privacy and giving users control, and DID, especially in light of the new Internet protocol proposals from the UN &ITU (now called future, vertical communications networks, or FVCNs) which are essentially top down internets, with total censorship & tracking.
As usual, brilliant analysis & writing, Jon!
