World Wide Web inventor Tim Berners-Lee released an ambitious rule book for online governance – a bill of rights and obligations for the Internet – designed to counteract the growing prevalence of such anti-democratic poisons as misinformation, mass surveillance and censorship.
The product of a year’s work by the World Wide Web Foundation where Berners-Lee is a founding director, the "Contract for the Web” seeks commitments from governments and industry to make and keep knowledge freely available – a digital policy agenda true to the design vision of the 30-year-old web.
