Sir Tim Berners-Lee is doing the dirty work of giant internet companies, according to critics who want to see governments lay down effective regulation – and not what they regard as a wishy-washy "Magna Carta".
It isn't the first time Berners-Lee has endorsed a "Magna Carta" – he did one in 2014 and another again this week (PDF), only with an added hashtag. We described it as "vanilla, squishy" and a "High School project".
