@mholzschlag Per @VandLShow, it’s just the shorten name for W3Schools. (for those just watching at home, it is NOT)

@mholzschlag: W3C = World Wide Web Consortium. It supports the development of standards that help us create an inclusive and accessible web.

@mholzschlag without looking it up I'd say "the standards-making body for the Web" ...what's the right answer?
