Maxthon 6 is the first step towards a new Internet – known as the ‘Metanet’ – which promises to:
- Give back to users (rather than online service providers) ownership of their data and content
- Enable users to monetize their data, content, online activity and even identity
- Eliminate the intrusive advertising business model of today’s Internet
- Inhibit bots and trolling, and encourage higher quality content
- Enable users to create a global identity for themselves which can be used across websites and applications
