The corporate web may be dying/reinventing itself. Everyone talks about FOSS and having a user driven experience.

But one thing we don't have is a true FOSS web, a protocol like HTTP that only allows FOSS websites to be hosted and bars any corporate interest from hosting for profit.

Would something like that be possible? A "dark web" but not for illicit schemes but for free and open hosted content?

You go to https://website for your comporate fix and to foss:// for none "open source" content. (Stuff like fediverse, self hosted websites etc.)

You'd have to have a governing body, something like the Free Software Foundation that ensures everyone hosting on the foss-web follows the open source guidelines and goes after violators.
