10 core features of Web 3.0 technology

Web 2.0 uses centralized services, servers and software, according to Avivah Litan, vice president and distinguished analyst at Gartner. It requires content creators to trust large companies like Meta to treat their data and intellectual property with respect and allow the tech giants to monetize that data. Many people believe those companies have had too much power. By contrast, Web 3.0 is decentralized and peer-to-peer, with no central authority and no single point of failure, enabling content creators to monetize their own data, to which they have a private key.
