also published on Monday, the web's creator acknowledged that many people doubted the web could be a force for good.
"When the Cambridge Analytica thing went down [people] realised that elections had been manipulated using data that they contributed." "We need open web champions within government - civil servants and elected officials who will take action when private sector interests threaten the public good and who will stand up to protect the open web," he wrote.
When, as my last question, I asked Sir Tim whether the overall impact of the web had been good, I expected an upbeat answer. Instead, gesturing to indicate an upward and then a downward curve, he said that after a good first 15 years, things had turned bad and a"mid-course correction" was needed.

What do you mean stop its downwards plunge....i cannot plunge any further...in fact if itcdoes plunge further its gonna start coming back...!
