How Is the Internet Doing?

The Forbes website posted an article reporting on the Mozilla Foundation’s release of the Internet Health Report, a forty-pages document giving a broad evaluation of the Internet’s condition. The report found that “open innovation on the Internet is threatened by bad policies, the devaluation of common standards, and the fragmentation of the global Internet….Proprietary software is usually prioritized over open standards and interoperability. We need to push for open source practices, transparency and standards for all new Internet technologies. We need more people, governments and companies to build openness into their thinking and practice, or we will gradually see it erode.”
