News : Net is 'less free and more unequal'

Anonymous

Headline : Net is 'less free and more unequal', says web founder

 

 

Excerpt from the Link "The web is becoming less free and more unequal, according to a report from the World Wide Web Foundation."

 

 

My Thoughts :

 

We know that certain aspects of the Net can be harmful, so some Censorship is required.  

 

Privacy is a major concern too as we can see from some of the media stories of surveillance and hacking etc. 

 

Cost and availability is high on most people's list 😄

 

Whats your thoughts ?

Hi @Anonymous   One does not need to look much further than some online forums (should that be fora?) to grasp the reality of that quote.  The freedom to censor without challenge, and to silence by click of a mouse button , are real threats to both freedom of expression and equality.   We live in a dangerous world.
