## Web3. #### Web3.
Probably not the start you expected, but let's be honest with ourselves for a moment - the current state of web3 is a joke, at least to the majority of the world.

### Web 1.0 #### Web 1.0
This era started in early 90s and marks a first generation of the world wide web, aka internet. It was `open` and had an `unlimited potential`. Number of users was growing exponentially, as was the number of companies building in the space and it didn't take too long for few big ones to emerge and people just happily handing control of own data over to them.

### Web 2.0 #### Web 2.0
By 2005, the internet was becoming increasingly centralized and this transition was complete with arrival of massive social networks connecting billions of people around the globe and monetizing their voluntarily entered and frequently updated personal data. On Web 2.0, the user is the real `product` and your data are no longer yours, same as your money on a bank account are not yours, you only trust a third party to manage it for you.

### Web3? #### Web3?
Web3 as an ideal is supposed to be about you, `the user`, not you, `the builder`. I have seen various ideas suggesting Web3 is `read + write + own`, and I can largely agree, though many builders don't agree with the route to achieve that.

But most important of all is `Censorship`. With web content, nearly every single layer of the system has been captured and has the power to shut you down if scaring you with warnings is not enough. But most important of all is `Censorship`. With web content, nearly every single layer of the system has been captured and has the power to shut you down if scaring you with warnings is not enough.
Let's look at those: **Let's look at censorship related infrastructure**:
- `ICANN` - A giant phone book hierarchy you can see as a group of database records knowns as `Domains`. This exists because people remember words better than numbers or codes and it is what makes market with domains so valuable. And while ICANN was originally founded by the government to be later made independent, it still can be corrupted and a subject to political pressure which makes it centralized and makes the criteria for getting new TLD's very difficult. - `ICANN` - A giant phone book hierarchy you can see as a group of database records knowns as `Domains`.

- `DNS` - Your DNS providers can easily censor you or refuse to provide service. And even if they are a good one, they can be pressured or enforced todo the same. So what can you do if this happens to you? Not much - your one and only option is to move to other provider.

- `Hosting` - Your servers can be shut down any moment. There is a hierarchy and `ISP (Internet Service Provider)` has this right as a business partner too. If any of them or the government doesn't like what's going on, the pressure is applied and can go all the way up, shutting you down quickly or facing the consequences. - `Hosting` - Your servers can be shut down any moment.
