> “Now imagine with this proposed Web3 that it’s true that users will own their data and experience. Why in the world would FB and Twitter and the mega corporations allow that? They stand to gain so much.” - my friend Auzzie, a pretty smart dude. This defeatism is kinda almost the point. Why are we just conceding the internet to this small group of companies? Why not at least try to take it back? I really don't understand what this particular bullet-point is trying to say here. People tend to forget that users determine the course of things, companies just build for users. Web2 gets better as things centralize, Web3 gets better as they decentralize and compose/interoperate. That is how we change this dynamic and "eliminate the middlemen."
