Sorry, the "web" isn't "open" and hasn't been for a while.

Most social media, newspapers, etc. throttle, block, or otherwise truncate non-authenticated clients.
Blogs are an extremely small tranche of information that the average netizen consumes.

Doesn't matter, it still doesn't need gatekeepers, and if they're already a lot, it should reduce them, not increase them.
