Relevant to the cause?

[Stephanie Perrin]

I agree with Dorothy.  ALso extremely relevant to us as we volunteer in this MS group:  was the decision not to regulate the Internet a sound one?  If not what needs tweaking and how?  Not so much to do with the DNS, it is true...but any kind of monopoly breakup may have some relevance to us.

cheers Stephanie

PS the future does tend to take its own sweet time to reveal all....look at how long it has taken people to realize what FB is doing with all our data!

This is beyond privacy, it is to do with hegemony and control without accountability. It is to do with how we should organise our digital future. As to influence, the future will reveal all.

Thanks Farell,  There are many excellent articles on this topic but from a co-founder this will have a lot of influence.

SO: While I do not downplay the privacy issues, I don't think the article of a co-founder who already cashed out of FB would add the much significant influence expected.

Dear All,

I found this article about facebook and privacy particularly interesting. It has nothing to do directly with domain names but It can educate more on how and why users should take more care about their data and how it is processed.` Also, it pointes out the danger of monopoly versus a multi stakeholder approach.
