このコンテンツについて
Tim Berners-Lee has been making headlines again this week with a combination of thought-provoking commentary, exciting book news, and high-profile public appearances. On September 13, the Evening Standard ran a notable op-ed by Tim Berners-Lee himself, calling for urgent regulation of the internet’s most addictive algorithms. He argued that while he’s typically hesitant about regulation, the societal harm caused by certain social media trends is now too big to ignore. Berners-Lee wrote that some of these “addictive” recommendation engines should, quite simply, be made illegal—a bold stance that is already sparking strong discussion in tech and policy circles.
Hot on the heels of this editorial, Hashtag Trending’s tech podcast also covered Berners-Lee’s comments, emphasizing his call to clamp down on digital addiction and discussing what this vision could mean for the future of the internet. The inventor of the web, once known for his fierce support of digital freedoms, is now demanding a new era of online responsibility, putting his reputation behind questions of tech ethics and regulation that could influence global policy.
The timing of these interventions is no coincidence. Berners-Lee is currently on the publicity circuit for his newly published memoir, “This Is For Everyone: The Unfinished Story of the World Wide Web.” The memoir, released on September 9 and heavily previewed in The Sunday Times Magazine last weekend, pulls back the curtain on pivotal moments in his storied career—including a memorable account of an AI summit at Ditchley Park, the semi-secret think tank near Oxford. In this excerpted vignette, he describes the odd juxtaposition of stately English tradition and cutting-edge digital debate, all while reflecting frankly on the unanticipated consequences of his invention.
On September 10, Berners-Lee spoke at the Sheldonian Theatre in Oxford, joined in conversation with journalist James Harding. Fans packed into the event, eager to hear the web’s creator reflect on the promise and pitfalls of the internet era—and his ongoing fight to defend its original ethos. The widespread buzz around the memoir’s release is pushing Berners-Lee back into the mainstream, with BookLab and multiple book reviewers highlighting “This Is For Everyone” as a must-read nonfiction release for September 2025.
Berners-Lee’s voice is also popping up in stories about global internet freedom. Euronews just noted his hopes for strengthened data rights and a wider social media backlash in 2025, aligning his vision with mounting protests against digital censorship around the world.
No major new business ventures or scandalous social media drama have broken in the past 24 hours, but Berners-Lee’s words and book are resonating far beyond the technology sector. As his call for "compassion on the internet" gains traction, it is clear that Tim Berners-Lee’s role as a pioneer—and now as a critic and reformer—continues to shape the way the digital future is debated.
