ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Tim Berners-Lee - Inventor
Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web. He leads the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), overseeing the Web's standards and development.

Why you should listen

In the 1980s, scientists at CERN were asking themselves how massive, complex, collaborative projects -- like the fledgling LHC -- could be orchestrated and tracked. Tim Berners-Lee, then a contractor, answered by inventing the World Wide Web. This global system of hypertext documents, linked through the Internet, brought about a massive cultural shift ushered in by the new tech and content it made possible: AOL, eBay, Wikipedia, TED.com...

Berners-Lee is now director of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), which maintains standards for the Web and continues to refine its design. Recently he has envisioned a "Semantic Web" -- an evolved version of the same system that recognizes the meaning of the information it carries. He's the 3Com Founders Professor of Engineering in the School of Engineering with a joint appointment in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the Laboratory for Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence (CSAIL) at the MIT, where he also heads the Decentralized Information Group (DIG). He is also a Professor in the Electronics and Computer Science Department at the University of Southampton, UK.

25年前,蒂姆·伯纳斯·李发明了万维网。所以我们应洗耳恭听他对我们的警告:我们正面临着一场战斗。网络中立性被侵蚀、资讯泡沫以及集权化大公司的控制都威胁着互联网的开放空间。用户需要为访问网络的权利和互联网的开放性而战斗。问题的关键是我们想要什么样的互联网?

1
2543
2638
这个月万维网也将庆祝
00:17
its 25th anniversary周年.
2
5181
2272
它的25岁生日
00:19
So I've got a question for you.
3
7453
2689
因此我要问你们一个问题
00:22
Let's talk about the journey旅程, mainly主要 about the future未来.
4
10142
4824
我们来谈谈这段旅程 主要关于未来的
00:26
Let's talk about the state.
5
14966
1715
来谈谈这个国家
00:28
Let's talk about what sort分类 of a web卷筒纸 we want.
6
16681
2314
来谈谈哪种互联网是我们想要的
00:30
So 25 years年份 ago, then, I was working加工 at CERNCERN.
7
18995
3320
25年前 我还在欧洲核子研究中心工作
00:34
I got permission允许 in the end结束 after about a year
8
22315
2350
一年后我终于得到了许可
00:36
to basically基本上 do it as a side project项目.
9
24665
2632
将它主要地当作一个编外项目来做
00:39
I wrote the code.
10
27297
1698
我写下了代码
00:40
I was I suppose假设 the first user用户.
11
28995
2149
我想我应该是第一个用户
00:43
There was a lot of concern关心
12
31144
2543
当时很担心
00:45
that people didn't want to pick it up
13
33687
1519
因为它太过复杂
00:47
because it would be too complicated复杂.
14
35206
1824
别们也许不愿意将它继续下去
00:49
A lot of persuasion劝说, a lot of wonderful精彩
15
37030
1719
通过大量劝说
00:50
collaboration合作 with other people,
16
38749
1710
与他人通力合作
00:52
and bit by bit, it worked工作.
17
40459
2429
逐渐 它走上正轨
00:54
It took off. It was pretty漂亮 cool.
18
42888
1643
它正式上线 真是太酷了
00:56
And in fact事实, a few少数 years年份 later后来 in 2000,
19
44531
3217
事实上 几年之后的2000年
00:59
five percent百分 of the world世界 population人口
20
47748
4202
全世界人口中的5%
01:03
were using运用 the world世界 wide web卷筒纸.
21
51950
1819
都在使用万维网
01:05
In 2007, seven years年份 later后来, 17 percent百分.
22
53769
2711
又过了7年 到2007年 上升到了17%
01:08
In 2008, we formed形成 the World世界 Wide Web卷筒纸 Foundation基础
23
56480
3340
2008年 我们建立了万维网基金会
01:11
partly部分地 to look at that
24
59820
1574
部分原因是考虑到这一点
01:13
and worry担心 about that figure数字.
25
61394
2850
还有就是担心这个数字
01:16
And now here we are in 2014,
26
64244
2059
现在我们步入2014年
01:18
and 40 percent百分 of the world世界
27
66303
2234
全世界人口中的40%
01:20
are using运用 the world世界 wide web卷筒纸, and counting数数.
28
68537
4016
都在使用万维网
01:24
Obviously明显 it's increasing增加.
29
72553
2002
显然这个数字仍在增长
01:26
I want you to think about both sides双方 of that.
30
74555
3408
我希望你们从两方面考虑一下这件事
01:29
Okay, obviously明显 to anybody任何人 here at TEDTED,
31
77963
2217
显然 对于现场观众来说
01:32
the first question you ask is, what can we do
32
80180
2983
要问的第一个问题就是 我们要怎样做
01:35
to get the other 60 percent百分 on board
33
83163
2056
才能尽可能快的
01:37
as quickly很快 as possible可能?
34
85219
1320
让剩下的60%也加入到万维网?
01:38
Lots of important重要 things. Obviously明显
it's going to be around mobile移动.
35
86539
2315
要依靠很多设备 显然需要移动设备
01:40
But also, I want you to think about the 40 percent百分,
36
88854
1980
但我希望你们也想一下那40%的人
01:42
because if you're sitting坐在 there yourself你自己
37
90834
1710
因为如果你自己
01:44
sort分类 of with a web-enabled网络功能 life,
38
92544
2626
生活在一个能够轻易上网的环境中
01:47
you don't remember记得 things anymore,
39
95170
1296
你不再需要记忆什么东西
01:48
you just look them up,
40
96466
1714
只要上上网就能查到想要的
01:50
then you may可能 feel that it's been a success成功
41
98180
4083
你可能会觉得这是一个成功
01:54
and we can all sit back.
42
102263
1980
然后我们就可以悠闲地生活
01:56
But in fact事实, yeah, it's been a success成功,
43
104243
3083
但事实上 的确 这是一个成功
01:59
there's lots of things, Khan Academy学院
44
107326
1946
互联网上有很多东西 有可汗学院
02:01
for crying哭了 out loud, there's Wikipedia维基百科,

109272
2289
还有维基百科

1768
这里有大量关于教育的东西
02:08
things in many许多 areas.
49
116552
1724
有各个领域的东西
02:10
Online线上 commerce商业 has in some cases
50
118276
2402
电子商务在某些情况下
02:12
completely全然 turned转身 upside上边 down the
way commerce商业 works作品 altogether,
51
120678
2791
彻底颠覆了整个商业活动的运作方式
02:15
made制作 types类型 of commerce商业 available可得到
52
123469
1555
使得各种之前不可行的商业类型
02:17
which哪一个 weren't available可得到 at all before.
53
125024
2326
变得可行
02:19
Commerce商业 has been almost几乎 universally举世 affected受影响.
54
127350
3382
商业几乎全都受到了影响
02:22
Government政府, not universally举世 affected受影响,
55
130732
2267
政府 没有全受到影响
02:24
but very affected受影响, and on a good day,
56
132999
2113
但也受到很大影响 然后某一天
02:27
lots of open打开 data数据, lots of e-government电子政务,
57
135112
2968
会出现大量开放数据 和网上政府
02:30
so lots of things which哪一个 are visible可见
58
138080
2703
很多事在网络上
02:32
happening事件 on the web卷筒纸.
59
140783
1628
都是显而易见的
02:34
Also, lots of things which哪一个 are less visible可见.
60
142411
2111
同样 也有很多事情不那么明显
02:36
The healthcare卫生保健, late晚了 at night when they're worried担心
61
144522
2403
比如 医疗方面的信息 人们在夜里
02:38
about what sort分类 of cancer癌症
62
146925
1711
为他们所关心的人可能会患有
02:40
somebody they care关心 about might威力 have,
63
148636
2125
哪种癌症而忧心忡忡
02:42
when they just talk across横过 the Internet互联网 to somebody
64
150761
5006
或人们通过互联网
与身处异国的亲友聊天
02:47
who they care关心 about very much in another另一个 country国家.
65
155767
4509
这些信息不需要被别人看到
02:52
Those sorts排序 of things are not, they're not out there,
66
160276
4219
02:56
and in fact事实 they've他们已经 acquired后天
a certain某些 amount of privacy隐私.
67
164495
3220
事实上他们需要一定的隐私
02:59
So we cannot不能 assume承担 that part部分 of the web卷筒纸,
68
167715
2784
因此我们不能假设互联网的一部分
03:02
part部分 of the deal合同 with the web卷筒纸,
69
170499
1091
互联网使用过程中的一部分
03:03
is when I use the web卷筒纸,
70
171590
1436
就是当我使用网络时的
03:05
it's just a transparent透明, neutral中性 medium.
71
173026
3390
它仅仅是一个透明的 中性的介质
03:08
I can talk to you over it without worrying令人担忧
72
176416
2536
我可以通过它与你交谈 不用担心
03:10
about what we in fact事实 now know is happening事件,
73
178952
2859
那些实际上我们知道正在发生的事
03:13
without worrying令人担忧 about the fact事实
74
181811
2450
不用去担心
03:16
that not only will surveillance监控 be happening事件
75
184261
1946
自己不仅会受到监控
03:18
but it'll它会 be doneDONE by people who may可能 abuse滥用 the data数据.
76
186207
3038
还会受到一些可能滥用数据的人监控
03:21
So in fact事实, something we realized实现,
77
189245
1206
所以实际上 我们意识到了一些事
03:22
we can't just use the web卷筒纸,
78
190451
1409
我们并不只是使用互联网
03:23
we have to worry担心 about
79
191860
1685
还不得不担心
03:25
what the underlying底层 infrastructure基础设施 of the whole整个 thing,
80
193545
3574
整个的底层基础结构
03:29
is it in fact事实 of a quality质量 that we need?
81
197119
4196
实际上达到我们所需的质量了吗?
03:33
We revel陶醉 in the fact事实 that we
have this wonderful精彩 free自由 speech言语.
82
201315
4949
我们得意于我们拥有这种极好的言论自由
03:38
We can tweet鸣叫, and oh, lots and lots of people
83
206264
3038
我们可以发微博 很多人
03:41
can see our tweets微博, except when they can't,
84
209302
2925
可以看到我们发的内容 除非他上不了
03:44
except when actually其实 Twitter推特
is blocked受阻 from their country国家,
85
212227
3351
除非他们国家屏蔽了推特
03:47
or in some way the way we try to express表现 ourselves我们自己
86
215578
3343
某种程度上 我们在试图表达自己的过程中
03:50
has put some information信息
about the state of ourselves我们自己,
87
218921
2935
加入了一些关于自己状态
03:53
the state of the country国家 we live生活 in,
88
221856
1363
关于我们生活的国家的状态的信息
03:55
which哪一个 isn't available可得到 to anybody任何人 else其他.
89
223219
2484
而这些信息不能给别人看
03:57
So we must必须 protest抗议 and make sure
90
225703
2981
因此我们必须抗议并确保
04:00
that censorship审查 is cut down,
91
228684
2124
审查制度被废除
04:02
that the web卷筒纸 is opened打开 up
92
230808
1574
要让存在审查制度
04:04
where there is censorship审查.
93
232382
2457
地方的网络保持开放
04:06
We love the fact事实 that the web卷筒纸 is open打开.
94
234839
2710
我们热爱互联网是开放的这一事实
04:09
It allows允许 us to talk. Anybody任何人 can talk to anybody任何人.
95
237549
2205
它让我们交谈 任何一个人都能与他人交谈
04:11
It doesn't matter who we are.
96
239754
1838
不管我们是谁都无所谓
04:13
And then we join加入 these big
97
241592
1337
然后我们加入那些
04:14
social社会 networking联网 companies公司
98
242929
2653
飞速成立的
04:17
which哪一个 are in fact事实 effectively有效 built内置 as silos筒仓,
99
245582
3362
大型社交网络公司
04:20
so that it's much easier更轻松 to talk to somebody
100
248944
1789
这使得跟同一社交网络中的人交谈
04:22
in the same相同 social社会 network网络
101
250733
1834
比跟不同社交网络中的人交谈
04:24
than it is to talk to somebody in a different不同 one,
102
252567
2323
要容易很多
04:26
so in fact事实 we're sometimes有时 limiting限制 ourselves我们自己.
103
254890
4374
所以事实上 我们有时会限制住自己
04:31
And we also have, if you've read
the book about the filter过滤 bubble泡沫,
104
259264
2926
而且 如果你读过关于“过滤泡沫”的书
04:34
the filter过滤 bubble泡沫 phenomenon现象 is that
105
262190
1968
过滤泡沫现象就是
04:36
we love to use machines
106
264158
1802
我们爱借助机器
04:37
which哪一个 help us find stuff东东 we like.
107
265960
2132
帮自己找到喜欢的东西
04:40
So we love it when we're bathed沐浴 in
108
268092
2342
因此 我们爱沉浸在
04:42
what things we like to click点击 on,
109
270434
1732
自己点击进去的内容里
04:44
and so the machine automatically自动 feeds供稿 us
110
272166
2160
机器自动为我们提供
04:46
the stuff东东 that we like and we end结束 up
111
274326
1484
我们喜欢的东西 然后我们
04:47
with this rose-colored玫瑰色 spectacles眼镜 view视图 of the world世界
112
275810
4261
最后会觉得这个世界十分美好
04:52
called a filter过滤 bubble泡沫.
113
280071
2189
这就叫做过滤泡沫
04:54
So here are some of the things which哪一个 maybe
114
282260
1943
这里存在一些可能威胁到
04:56
threaten威胁 the social社会 web卷筒纸 we have.
115
284203
3092
我们现有的社交网络的东西
04:59
What sort分类 of web卷筒纸 do you want?
116
287295

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Tim Berners-Lee - Inventor
Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web. He leads the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), overseeing the Web's standards and development.

Why you should listen

In the 1980s, scientists at CERN were asking themselves how massive, complex, collaborative projects -- like the fledgling LHC -- could be orchestrated and tracked. Tim Berners-Lee, then a contractor, answered by inventing the World Wide Web. This global system of hypertext documents, linked through the Internet, brought about a massive cultural shift ushered in by the new tech and content it made possible: AOL, eBay, Wikipedia, TED.com...

Berners-Lee is now director of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), which maintains standards for the Web and continues to refine its design. Recently he has envisioned a "Semantic Web" -- an evolved version of the same system that recognizes the meaning of the information it carries. He's the 3Com Founders Professor of Engineering in the School of Engineering with a joint appointment in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the Laboratory for Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence (CSAIL) at the MIT, where he also heads the Decentralized Information Group (DIG). He is also a Professor in the Electronics and Computer Science Department at the University of Southampton, UK.
