Paradigm shifts for the decentralized Web

Dear all,

I published a blog post in which I discuss the impact of decentralization on Web applications:
https://ruben.verborgh.org/blog/2017/12/20/paradigm-shifts-for-the-decentralized-web/

Beyond the change of data ownership, decentralization fundamentally changes how data and applications interact.
I discuss the concept of "apps as views", and the fact that we'll need to rely on queries for sustainability.
Both are highly relevant for read/write Web purposes, so I'm curious to hear what you think.

All feedback and comments are most welcome!

Best regards,

Ruben
