    Is Mozilla going to do anything about the general brokenness of web technologies?

    Maybe, maybe not. I'd be inclined to think not though. If they had wanted to they could have integrated p2p technology into the browser years ago, and supported alternatives to the CA system. But they didn't. They could be championing the fediverse and related decentralized technologies, but they're not.

    The good thing about this article is that it identifies DNS as a problem. For the internet to advance DNS as we know it needs to be sidelined and replaced by something like keys plus petnames. Subscribe to your favorite list of petnames.

    I expect that javascript will decline. Maybe we are at peak javascript now. Even the inventor of nodejs thinks it's a trash fire, so I think this is a language which will decrease in importance in future, even though it seems highly necessary now.

    There is plenty of work to be done.
