    Internet WWW Udp Tcp Email P2P Tor I2P … … …

    I think a lot of web 3.0’ers forget the internet was founded on a free and open principle and things as fundamental as NAT were considered hugely controversial because it wasnt %100 open but money and time corrupts everything, just because these protocols are used as a means to an end now doesn’t mean they weren’t the primary source of network communication when they were first invented and later proprietary protocols were built on top of them, in that way WEB 3.0 isn’t a revolutionary idea but a return to form with all odds against them swimming upstream and the competition has already won the race.
