Never has the internet been at a more critical point. Never have there been more opportunities for new applications, tools, and business models – and never have there been more threats that could foreclose such new opportunities. These include state-sponsored cyber-attacks and information warfare, anti-competitive business practices, and declining consumer trust. Governments have a key role in responding to these threats but, unfortunately, rather than effective solutions, many governments and policymakers are proposing and, in some cases, adopting misguided policies.
More than ever, we need a vision for the next phase of digital development that is not subject to myths about the internet, as MIKE NELSON discusses.
