Zusammenfassungen
The book’s thesis is that
the mainstream computing
environment we’ve experienced
for the past 30-plus years - dating
from the introduction of the first
mainstream personal computer, the
Apple II, in 1977 - is an anomaly.
Von Jonathan L. Zittrain im Text The End of the Generative Internet (2009) 
Die Offenheit bisheriger IT-Systeme (PC, Internet) sind gefährdet, weil IT-Konzerne die Möglichkeiten der User, Programme und Netzerke zu verändern immer mehr einschränken. Gemäss Zittrain gefährdet diese abnehmende Offenheit von ICT aber deren Innovationskraft.
In the arc from the Apple II to the iPhone, we learn something important about
where the Internet has been, and something more important about where it is
going. The PC revolution was launched with PCs that invited innovation by
others. So too with the Internet. Both were generative: they were designed to
accept any contribution that followed a basic set of rules (either coded for a
particular operating system, or respecting the protocols of the Internet). Both
overwhelmed their respective proprietary, non-generative competitors, such as
the makers of stand-alone word processors and proprietary online services like
CompuServe and AOL. But the future unfolding right now is very different
from this past. The future is not one of generative PCs attached to a generative
network. It is instead one of sterile appliances tethered to a network of control.
These appliances take the innovations already created by Internet users and
package them neatly and compellingly, which is good—but only if the Internet
and PC can remain sufficiently central in the digital ecosystem to compete with
locked-down appliances and facilitate the next round of innovations. The bal-
ance between the two spheres is precarious, and it is slipping toward the safer
appliance.This extraordinary book explains the engine that has catapulted the Internet from backwater to ubiquity—and reveals that it is sputtering precisely because of its runaway success. With the unwitting help of its users, the generative Internet is on a path to a lockdown, ending its cycle of innovation—and facilitating unsettling new kinds of control.
IPods, iPhones, Xboxes, and TiVos represent the first wave of Internet-centered products that can’t be easily modified by anyone except their vendors or selected partners. These “tethered appliances” have already been used in remarkable but little-known ways: car GPS systems have been reconfigured at the demand of law enforcement to eavesdrop on the occupants at all times, and digital video recorders have been ordered to self-destruct thanks to a lawsuit against the manufacturer thousands of miles away. New Web 2.0 platforms like Google mash-ups and Facebook are rightly touted—but their applications can be similarly monitored and eliminated from a central source. As tethered appliances and applications eclipse the PC, the very nature of the Internet—its “generativity,” or innovative character—is at risk.
The Internet’s current trajectory is one of lost opportunity. Its salvation, Zittrain argues, lies in the hands of its millions of users. Drawing on generative technologies like Wikipedia that have so far survived their own successes, this book shows how to develop new technologies and social structures that allow users to work creatively and collaboratively, participate in solutions, and become true “netizens.”
