  • It’s a buzz word.

    Web 1.0 is just websites. They envisioned everyone had their own web site to blog on. Geocities, ISP hosting, web rings, link aggregators, and simple human curated search engines. That kind of thing.

    Web 2.0 basically meant APIs. You could stitch a weather API with a map API and make a weather map app. This kind of came true, but it wasn’t as free and open as people hoped for.

    Web 3.0 is supposed the intersection of the web and distributed apps. Think games on the block chain like crypto kitties. It’s mostly been a flop since blockchain based decentralization is slow, expensive, and difficult for users. That being said there are successful use cases like online wallet management and distributed exchanges (defi).








  • Your host sets it’s own DNS servers, if the router isn’t on the list, they don’t get pinged. Now they could try to man in the middle you, so you could try DNS over TLS, but it’s probably not your issue.

    You’re DNS server settings likely never took hold. Like if you use a DHCP client, then override your DNS settings, that won’t take effect until you request a new DHCP connection.

    Some Linux distros will have local DNS servers that you always point to which are a pain to update as well. Not sure about Windows and MAC.

    good luck man!
