I hate the web.
| 1) bugmenot
2) clear autocomplete
| Doesn't matter. Everything is stored. No matter what you do, someone will be watching in the end. The least I want is to be able to watch back.
| e.g. Google
| fours letters: G D P R
| Use fake accounts with temp-mail.org emails for everything
| The web or the net
| Avoid google search.
Avoid google software, eg. Chrome.
Avoid google affiliated utilitities, eg: gmail, google drive, google docs, geolocation, etc.
Do not login to youtube when watching videos. If some video wants you to login to watch, forget it and try to find said video elsewhere.
... Repeat anything that applies above for Facebook, Twitter and bing/MSN.
| Go for tor :3
| Can't use half of android's functionality without Google. I hate smartphones
| I do too, gurl. I'm sad that sites have lost the hypertext spirit quite a bit. It's kind of why I like danger/u/. Just simple text with a form. Meanwhile major sites are 10 megabyte beasts with millions of lines of JS Frameworks. They take 100 HTTP asynchronous requests for just one page and it's just awful. I always admire academic faculties' (professors, doctors, etc) simple websites. See stroustrup.com for example. Now that's a website.
| How about using tor

Thats not an issue of the web itself. The problem is plattforming and surveillance due to commercialization/capitalization of the internet.

| Anonymous message boards are truly the ultimate form of the web
| JavaScript was a mistake

No, it's not the language itself. It's the concept of sending code over http and executing it in a subsystem called "browser" that was intentionally build to show hypertext, which sucks.

This so much. I honestly can't think of a web application that couldn't be implemented without any Javascript. It's also lead to browsers being bloated beasts. All major browsers have huge binaries and gigantic code bases no one can really keep track of.
It could be worse though. Imagine if Microsofts ActiveX trash would've taken over. As far as I know it's compiled code that gets sent over HTTP to be executed by the browser.
