Abstract

A battle is raging for control of the Internet and it is taking place every day. People fed up with the recalcitrance and outright arrogance of their providers and governments’ lack of action are taking their information future into their own hands by building their own high-speed networks. The internet can be positive in the sense that important information can be reached throughout community and beyond that. The Internet has been a very remarkable tool in order to develop political change around the world. The Internet is a powerful tool to spread economic development and communications. But it can also be negative.
