Google proposed Web Bundles could threaten the Web as we know it
I think their idea is to combine that with signing the bundles, so a page from www.someserver.com can be served by anyone, aka Google. I guess this would mean Google can serve all content on the web.<p>There seems to be a strong urge in Google to cut the connection between then endpoints of the web and become the central authority. Make all traffic flow through their machines. Let no information arrive at the endpoints.<p>Right now, requests on the web are kind of p2p. A user requests a website, the publisher serves it any way they see fit. Directly via their servers or via a CDN of their choice.<p>Google seems to have a strong focus on ending this. Turning the web into Googlebook &#x2F; AOLoogle.<p>I wonder why. Do they see their business model threatened on the open web? Or do they see a chance to increase their profit with a closed web?
