Remember I [AnonyMint] was telling everyone in 2013 that Tor was not anonymous because of timing analysis due to being a low latency network and Sybil attacks on the relay nodes by national security agencies. And everyone thought I was crazy. And now we see new research that says 81% of the users can be identified. Sigh.
The title and content of the OP is not about the death of
all stateless
content, rather I think it quite explicitly says death of the Stateless
Web.
This salient distinction is that the content and rending model (e.g. HTML) shouldnt have a monopoly over the transport model (e.g. HTTP).
The Web is becoming more general and the transport layer is detaching from market dominance by the rendering layer.
This enables new opportunities and possibilities.
I wonder what the
No voters are thinking? Is my presentation too abstracted? Perhaps I need to incorporate the above summary.
Update: done.
The title and content of this epistle is not about the death of
all stateless
content, rather I think it quite explicitly says death of the Stateless
Web. This salient distinction is that per the
Unix design principles of least
presumptions, orthogonality, and separation-of-concerns, the content and rending model (e.g. HTML) shouldnt have a monopoly over the transport model (e.g. HTTP). The Web is becoming more general, stateful, and the transport layer is detaching from market dominance by the rendering layer. This creates new opportunities and possibilities.
