Cut from an essay but worth sharing, this is the list of projects I can recall from memory that has tried to make the internet more open. A lot of people have committed their careers to this. People care!

@pfrazee.com pulls up old-man chair, groans from back and hip, sits down: - Apache Server - Mozilla (not Firefox, Mozilla, though also Firefox) - EFF's HTTPS Everywhere (which spawned Let's Encrypt; arguably that combo more successful than RSS/Atom) - WhatWG

(And to be clear, this is not a complaint about your list; just to add to your point that the modern web stack is one of the great collaborative efforts in human history - multi-decade, multi-lingual, multI-party, etc etc)
