Seen at Tom Scott’s blog Derivadow.com. From the point of view of web architecture I think that he gets the definition of “stateless” wrong, but the closing sentence here is the stuff of bumper stickers.
The web isn’t politically / ethically neutral and wasn’t designed by people who are / were politically / ethically neutral. Which is why the most important design decision of the web was statelessness … Statelessness means everyone has equal access to information regardless of age or gender or ethnic background or physical location or physical ability etc etc etc. Because the web doesn’t care about who you are, only what you asked for.
