The importance of the WWW for me has been research papers and books, dev tools, and jazz & classical music.
Although I use it every day, the WWW has become something that I actively mistrust. There are too many predators, both commercial and espionage.
I scrape WWW pages from the terminal and download archives for offline reference. Just to use what TBL conceived, it has been necessary to develop multi-layered defence: router, firewall, dns doh and filters, VPN, firejail, browser extensions.
I think it's safe to say that this is not what most users have in mind when they buy a shiny new computer and "connect to the Internet".
