The advent of the internet and in particular the world wide web has led to tremendous increase in global prosperity, it has aided human relations through the social media, it has facilitated dissemination of information, it has assisted in research and discoveries and so many more groundbreaking achievements.
However, all these benefits have come at a gruesome cost. The cost of privacy, security and unwanted intrusion whenever a user is surfing the internet for valuable for information. All these are possible because the internet is centralised. It is it is essentially being controlled by techie-giants such as Google, Facebook government and other stakeholders in the cyberspace. Subsequently, these challenges have left tons of internet users across the globe in a limbo, with no hope in sight.
Shortcoming of the internet
Breach of breach of privacy
Foremost among challenges face by internet users is breach of privacy. Tech giants (Think of Facebook, Google, Twitter etc.) without prior approval or knowledge of users compile personal informations of internet users by tracking their behaviour across several websites with the hope of using same information for digital advertising services. Furthermore, they employ these information in selecting product and services that will appeal mostly to a customer.
The downside of this is that even when there are inadequacies in the information gathered on a particular user since his opinion is not soughted there is no way to correct these inadequacies.
Breach of security
Internet users are often prone to breach of security as a result of promotional adverts often display while surfing the internet. Most of these promotional ads are infected with malware and by clicking on it, users are susceptible to cyber attack, data theft and compromisation privileged information. Website operators in the process of monetizing their website usually allowed sponsored ads on their webpages without knowledge that such ads poses a greater threat to users security.
Fees for the use of the internet
Internet users are either outrightly charged for the internet usage by paying subscription or by payment of hidden charges in form of digital ads placement on webpages.
Quality of service
For website owners to earn more on their website, more visitors is needed. The current revenue stream of website operators is directly proportional to the number of users visiting their websites. In a bid to increase traffic, website operators often resorts to tricks and immoral methods to lure visitors to their website. Some of these ugly practices involves spamming, clickbait, phishing which has led to continuous decrease in quality of internet services rendered and has left many internet users frustrated.
In proffering solutions to these challenges, a group of professionals with requisite knowledge of blockchain technology and the internet has come up with an innovative solution to address these challenges. Permit me to introduce Online.io projet to you.
