Re-Decentralizing the Web and recapturing our data
summary
Claims that the web can be re-decentralized using Solid and Pods, with personal online data stores holding linked data (JSON‑LD, RDF, RDFa, FOAF) controlled by WebID and Web Access Control. Concrete experiments include a BBC experiment linking Spotify play history into pods for better recommendations and an NHS pilot using FHIR schemas so optometrist scans flow into patient pods. Evidence cited: ~100 logins per person, ~10 lockouts/month, 22 billion breached records in 2021, and positive user research under 35.
