Web inventor fears for the future
Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson -
"Certain undemocratic things could emerge and misinformation start spreading over the web. "
Can't imagine that.
Good old Tim Berners Lee. He crops up every now and again and says something pointless and out of touch with reality.Will work inside IR35. Or for food. -

I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave JohnsonComment
