pool of funds supporting our efforts, which are becoming more mainstream and relevant for the next 50 years (especially for developing countries). The production of research is extremely concentrated and, as austerity is rampant all over the World, State funding
to research is shrinking by the day even for developed countries at the same pace as tax evasion (or elusion) (Google is not guilt free in this area <a href="http://fortune.com/2016/03/11/apple-google-taxes-eu/" target="_blank">http://fortune.com/2016/03/11/apple-google-taxes-eu/</a>)</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p><span style="font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">As we know Google has recently been fined $ 2.7 billion for anti-competitive practices by the EU regulator, which only means that in all countries that are too weak to take on google (or benefit from its profits,
meaning the US) Google remains in violation of competition (and many other) laws..... All this Google funded research and advocacy, of dont regulate the Internet (read, Internet companies), are playing a dangerous game, seriously compromising public interest.

<p><span style="font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">It is time we declare the honeymoon of civil society and academic love for digital global corporations over. They are today like big oil companies -- no doubt the latter provide what is still the main energy
resource that keeps our societies ticking but in the bargain they very often, and systemically, indulge in stuff that needs academics and NGOs to be watching against. It is pretty difficult to undertake such watching while taking considerable money from them.
It is a simple truism, but the digital sector tends to ignore it.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
