lecture: Locking the Web Open: Call for a Distributed Web
Locking the Net Open: Transforming the Web into a truly distributed system that’s all fun, secure and reliable. Using Javascript, peer-to-peer tech, bitcoin and blockchain, we can build on top of the current web to build a system that protects reader privacy, is reliable against hardware outages and censorship and stays fun.

20 years after the World Wide Web was created, can we now make it better? How can we ensure that our most important values: privacy, free speech, and open access to knowledge are enshrined in the code itself? In a provocative call to action, entrepreneur and Open Internet advocate, Brewster Kahle, challenges us to build a better, decentralized Web based on new distributed technologies. He lays out a path to creating a new Web that is reliable, private, but still fun—in order to lock the Web open for good.
