Y2K Diary [ 28.05.00 ] 149. Hands Off the Internet "The Internet is a bastion of free speech and an endless canvas of possibilities." "It's also prime real estate for government regulation." "A war is being waged over the Internet and how you as a consumer will access it.  The battle lines are drawn and you have to decide which side you're on.  The side that limits or the side that innovates." It's true that the future is dire uncertain. Some say that 0ver 75% of websites will not be there tomorrow.  The same rumours say that the web will mainly be accessible through the TV or the mobile phone and will therefore be strictly regulated. Do we need regulation or guidance? NP related links: Hands Off the Internet [ submit entry ]      [ contents ]      [ previous ]  [ next ]
