The World Computer calls for an Operating System (OS) to facilitate users to own, trade and monetize their data.

As #Web ecosystem users have to trust the Network OS, some people referred to it in 1997 as:

The God Protocols | Satoshi Nakamoto Institute https://nakamotoinstitute.org/the-god-protocols/

The 1st figure literally showed that multiple users connected to the Cray supercomputers at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) at UIUC in the summer of 1987, which was the first client/server computing platform (and later morphed into the www Web in 1990).

Why do you have to trust an OS?

The simple answer is that you don’t have a choice while you enter passwords on a keyboard: the OS is the software behind the scene, FYI.

If you don’t trust Windows, get a Mac. If you don’t trust either, you may build your own Linux from scratch.

What does an OS do?

1) assigns each user a unique ID;

2) allows users to log in with their IDs and access their private data storage;

3) prevents other users from accessing your private storage;

4) provides public storage that all users can share, such as /bin, /tmp, /etc;
