The Markup Cult is Taking Over

...and deprogramming is an urgent priority

The W3C sets the standards for the World Wide Web by which everybody abides including even governments.

But the W3C is essentially a cult. Credibility within the W3C is earned by contributing to deliverables, not complaining. Deliverables are mapped out and agreed on by contributors to other deliverables who have not rocked the boat. Many if not most contributors work for large companies or governments that are represented by multiple people at the W3C and what goes on between them at those organizations is beyond the reach of the W3C.

The W3C began with and has for a long time been involved in setting standards for Hypertext Markup Language, HTML, which is the file format exchanged on the internet, the exchange of which makes up the “web”.

Now governments and large companies are using the W3C to set standards for “digital identity”, “credentials”, “provenance”, “trust”, “authenticity”, “security”, and other things your parents taught you that are now moved online.

The W3C was not elected by anybody, is dominated by large organizations controlled by international finance capital, and compared to its funding and its concocted deliverables, does not give a hoot in hell what happens to people, individually or collectively, as long as they stay out of the way of the banksters’ machine.

The W3C is a fig leaf of transparency and accountability over the naked tyranny of Technocracy.
