6th ACM Workshop on Hot Topics in Networking (Hotnets), Atlanta, GA, November 2007
Today's Web depends on a particular pact between sites
and users: sites invest capital and labor to create and market a set of features,
and users gain access to these features by giving up control of their
data (photos, personal information, creative musings, etc.). This
paper imagines a very different Web ecosystem, in which users retain
control of their data and developers can justify their existence without
hoarding that data.
