Internet Issue and Debate

The internet issue and debate is a very controversial issue. In one of these debates Mr. Michael Krieger a Los Angeles based attorney whose practice is devoted to high technology business issues, especially for software, multimedia, and internet-related development, acquisition, licensing, distribution and services. He also has served as a special private adviser to Dr. Jon Postel, the late Internet Pioneer/”czar” implemented the U.S. Government’s mandate to transfer internet policy making and control to a private corporation.
He was asked during an interview, what type of impact democratization of information in the internet would cause? Mr. Krieger replied with this “ Hopefully it will level the playing field so that those with fewer resources will be at least somewhat more equal to those with great resources. Let’s say, for instance, the citizen who wants to be informed previously had to go to a depository library for many kinds of information, if we’re talking about the United States. Now many, many things are available over the web. The burden of gaining information is substantially lower. That runs the risk of people assuming that everything they want is on the internet so they pursue nothing elsewhere” what you all think?
