People seem to be redefining Web 2.0 as Facebook, etc, that own data, but Web 2.0 at the time was platforms like WordPress, Odeo, Six Apart, Flickr, Technorati, and http://del.icio.us that had open data and interoperated. https://www.flickr.com/photos/ross/49490304 https://twitter.com/brian_armstrong/status/1479636522282455042

One of the smaller things that grates about the crypto push is its boosters just unilaterally redefining “web 2.0” to mean “the big platforms like Facebook and Google”. It didn’t mean that! It meant “Ajax websites that don’t need to be refreshed every time the content changes”!

This is one of the most important aspects of Web 2.0 that web3 advocates have tried to retcon. That generation also started with optimistic creators talking about decentralized, user-owned, open protocols (open standards, even!) that would empower people. Guess how it played out.
