このコンテンツについて
Tim Berners Lee, inventor of the World Wide Web, has been back in the headlines recently as his decades long fight to keep the internet open and free enters a new era. According to the University of Waterloo’s web development wrap up from October 17, 2025, the narrative about Berners Lee is shifting from recognition of his gift to mankind—giving away the web for free in the early nineties—to his impassioned warning that the web’s current direction, commandeered by giant platforms profiting from personal data, is anything but his original vision. That vision, as Berners Lee himself recently reiterated, was always about universal access—he gave away the web for free because he believed it would only work if everyone could use it equally, not just a privileged few.
Stories circulating this past week on platforms like Lireo Designs recount his decision to give away the web at age 34 and his belief, stronger than ever, that to save the web now requires returning to first principles—open access, user privacy, and equal opportunity. TechXplore echoes this sentiment, noting that Berners Lee laments how the web, intended to unite humanity through shared knowledge, sometimes divides and polarizes in ways he deeply regrets.
The biographical flash right now: Berners Lee is doubling down on his social mission through his current work at Inrupt and the Solid platform. Detailed coverage by OODA Loop describes how Solid lets users control their own data through “pods”—self-owned, private collections decoupled from application logic—which is being vigorously discussed at tech and policy summits worldwide as a model for the next, privacy-centric phase of the internet. His presence is defining high-profile industry events this autumn, with his data-sovereignty and user-empowerment plan cited as central to the OODAcon 2025 agenda, a gathering of leaders shaping the digital future.
On social media, Berners Lee is trending again as younger technologists and digital rights advocates rediscover his message, amplifying his push for decentralized web infrastructure and privacy-first networks. Posts on Threads reference Berners Lee’s ongoing commitment to develop a better version of the Web, one immune from large-scale surveillance or data harvesting—sparking lively debates about whether his vision can outpace corporate interests.
Business-wise, Inrupt’s momentum is picking up as regulators in the European Union and tech investors move to embrace privacy-enhancing innovations that echo his designs, a factor that could deeply influence policy and digital culture for years to come.
There are no major breaking headlines about public appearances or controversy from the past 24 hours, but the focus on Berners Lee’s struggle for a humane web, highlighted throughout October, has made him a central figure in tech’s history—and possibly its next chapter.
