How to fix the web | Brendan Eich | TEDxVienna

In physical, biological, and networked computer systems, path dependence is king. What if we, the people who use the Internet, could band together for bargaining power based on the value of our collective data?

Brendan Eich is the co-founder and CEO of Brave Software, a start-up that aims to transform the online ad ecosystem. Brendan helped launch the award-winning Firefox web browser and invented JavaScript, the Internet's most widely used programming language.

one of the most important persons of all time, at a side channel of TED. One more word for you: BAT

[@The77SpaceMan]

As I write this, 3 years later, BAT just broke through the 1 dollar barrier

[@TheBoko7]

Totally agree!

[@AprilSunshine]

The browser he's talking about is called BRAVE. I'm trying to get it on my laptop right now but so far it's working great on my android! :D

[@zzRider]

This was far more informative than anything at the original TED conference.

[@shimdidlys2343]

Brendan Eich made JavaScript in a cave! With a box of scraps!

[@cristobalvera4698]

@@shimdidlys2343 i got the reference lmao

[@crystalyeow2911]

Bear Bear laugh because he went through the lesson!

[@terabyter9000]

Brave Browser ftw.

[@montazmeahii6029]

I found this video so I could learn how to say his name, but I don't think he ever said his name.

[@juliacollins3599]

Eich like "ike"

[@techytalks130]

I have a job because of javascript

[@donnalee9147]

brave ROCKS!

[@adammagee]

we. know. look up, down, you find several thousand comments just saying *GUYS BRAVE IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOOOD I USE IT ON ALL OF MY DEVICES*

[@ThatUltimateFlash]

Based.

[@tyster911]

Lord and savior 🙏🏼

[@GravityGamingCo]

You must be mistaken Jesus.

[@walterherrera3660]

I was expecting a big reveal of the BRAVE BROWSER. I have to say, I’m a little disappointed! I have BRAVE on all my Devices!

[@sliddjur]

Ublock Origin blocked 56 items while watching this video.

[@n33ksBeats]

98 for me. I suggest everyone downloads the Brave browser. It's remarkably good and blocks all ads for you internally.

[@thomase13]

Wow! 121 for me!!

[@edwardeduardus7398]

I think he didn't put "attention" to this published video any more: "This creator has not yet signed up to receive contributions from Brave users. Any tips you send will remain in your wallet until they verify." :D

[@BestMentalism]

METANET is coming to fix the internet! Huge revolution

[@decenart8542]

What an intro🤣

[@cotillion137]

Nice work shilling BAT in this comment section. Funny that he didn't explicitly drop the browser name in the videos.. If his vision comes true then it could even turn into a good investment. No harm in waiting for the current volatility to subside before investing

[@idleobserver4295]

This man lost his job for being Christian.

[@prezadent1]

Hopefully he learned his lesson and made some changes.

[@ellala4404]

Yea sure...now he is an atheist.

[@AprilSunshine]

Impossible. You can't be penalized for your religion. You can only be penalized for trying to force your religion onto others.

[@ryansymons8915]

I'm sure he didn't lose much sleep over it

[@avimehenwal]

Ohh really ? is it for real? never heard of it. He seems to be a very important person

[@nigeladams8321]

Hi just want to remind everyone this guy doesn't want me or people like me to have rights

[@yinyangavenger4826]

Sounds kinda based to me.
