Data "on" the Web vs Data "in" the Web

Hello DWBP,

I was reading again about the 5 Start for Open Data and I saw this
affirmation below about 3 starts Web Data [1] that I think would be
interesting to share with this WG.

*Excellent! The data is not only available via the Web but now everyone can
use the data easily. On the other hand, it's still data on the Web and
not data in the Web

With regards this affirmation, you can see more details in [2] and [3], but
not that much.
