◆ 01: Do you have anything other than "World Wide Web"?
Besides "World Wide Web" I was thinking about "Mine of Information" "The Information Mine" "The Mesh", but none of them was right. I love the World Wide Web, which is worldwide variable "W" at the beginning of the word, and also avoids collisions with C language syntax. As a fact, I used HTML for C language syntax.
The second part of Tim Berners-Lee's answer seems to refer to the world's first web browser World Wide Web.
◆ 02: Did you not expect the Internet to be used for anything?

◆ 03: When looking back at the Internet in the near future, do you think it is fortunate that there is a world like the World Wide Web, free and uncensored?
It depends on the user, but in the near future it seems that the existence of the World Wide Web is lucky. However, if a general user suffers damage without noticing the threat on the Web, as long as it is needed,Intellectual property protection bill(PIPA) andOnline pirate action prevention bill(SOPA),Convention against counterfeiting and pirated copyrightI will participate in a demonstration against the ACTA.
◆ 04: Where is the web going for the next 25 years?
The web is made artificially like laws and constitution, we can freely choose usage and create new things. So, the future of the web is up to us.
05: Although the web has grown greatly in 25 years, there is no big change in the interface. How can the interface change dramatically?
I think it is a very good question, but I do not know the answer. I think that the world surrounded by pixels that human eyes can not see is a powerful interface. Also, it is important not only to look at the interface, but also to create it together, not just to use it.
◆ 06: Who was the example you were when I was little?
UK's first commercial electronic general-purpose computer "Ferranti Mark 1My parents who were involved in the development team of. Besides, people who worked with my parents, and teachers of mathematics and chemistry.

◆ 07: Did you think that the Internet will grow so far?
of course. I could not say exactly the growth of the Internet, though. Twenty five years ago, I predicted that it will be next week to come down to Reddit and receive questions. Actually it is this week. Every human being makes mistakes.
◆ 08: What was the PC you had for the first time?
The first thing I had was "M6800 evaluation kit". Then we assembled a large amount of "3U high cards" and installed it on the shelf together with the car's battery as an uninterruptible power supply. I used old television on display.
◆ 09: You correspond to HTML5Digital rights management(DRM), many point out that your claim to your open web is hypocritical. Are there any opinions?
For those who like it, let 's answer "the question about DRM is not as simple as we think." Of course, I understand that DRM is a problem of trouble and should be applied only to high-value digital contents, but the copyright of the United States and the Digital Millennium Copyright law are collapsing and DRM and You need to think of it as another thing.
◆ 10: Edward · Snowden is a hero? Or is it a devil?
"I did not have alternative means" "Acting as a journalist" "Using other journalists to pay close attention to the information to be disclosed" "Supplied information that would benefit the world "He should be protected, and we must have all we need to protect people like him. We will try to build a perfect government system, but we can hardly build it perfectly. In that case, I think there is a possibility that accusers like Snowden will save the society.

◆ 11: There are bad aspects such as black market on the Internet, but what do you think about that?
For me who is not an expert in that field, it is a very difficult question. The illegal act is a crime in and out of the Internet, but the anonymity of the Internet is complicating the story. We have the right to be anonymous, but for example, we should not have the right to be anonymous if anyone who can tease someone on the internet.

◆ 15: Looking at the giant Internet, called the father of the atomic bombRobert OppenheimerDo you feel like?
No, I have never felt like that. The web is a neutral existence, a tool of mankind. Humans have done wonderful things and tremendously horrible things in the past. Tools with powerful power are used for good and bad things. The bad thing is bad things on the internet, and it does not change to violate the law.
◆ 16:GCHQIs Yahoo! What do you think about monitoring systems that are occurring on the Internet recently, such as browsing video chat?
I think that it will be necessary for government agents to monitor the Internet to eradicate crime in the future. However, we need to build a new system that allows the investigation institution to investigate citizens closely and responsibly.
Yahoo! As to the fact that the video chat was intercepted, you can check the details from the following article ".
