Fiction or Prediction ?? (A good read.)

[Lumos]

This thread is about a story that may actually be sort of prescient.

It is written as a fiction about the WWW set in 2050.

Here is a short excerpt from the story:

Quote:So, here we are in March 2050 and as of yesterday, when Amazon gave up the fight for the open web and decided to join Google there are only two websites left. What went wrong?

Two companies deserve extra attention when it comes to murdering the web: Google and Facebook, as you all know the last two giants standing after an epic battle that lasted for decades for control of the most important resource all of us consume daily: information.
