The World Wide Web was all about you create knowledge and how you create hyperlinks to different pieces of knowledge. So over time we kind of create this tapestry of humanity and what we know, which at another level of abstraction is kind of creating this meta-map of humanity. This meta-map of humanity is now controlled by these companies that are the ones who have access to the backend.

I love the phrase tapestry of humanity here. I like the IndieWeb and personal wikis as a way of being part of the warp and weft of that tapestry.
