He sold out his creation to Big Corporate. I'd expect his pivotal role in allowing DRM to be brought up first anywhere he's mentioned. There's no washing hands of an act like this. He broke the free and open web permanently for everyone. Creating Solid is not an act of absolution because DRM will forever exist now in all browsers forever. Browsers that increasingly act as our total window into computing. Who's going to put the genie back in the bottle? No one sitting on the W3C will ever go for it now or in the future.
