Hello Norbert,
I share your point of view. Also note the disparity in the appropriation of
ICT policy makers in developing countries. That both institutions and
individuals. One of the biggest barriers also lies in the lack of political
will to make ICT a tool for real reasons we started to clearly identify:
the rejection of rationality in public administration, ease in the
corruption, generation of conflict, let it go by easier and scheming of any
kind .... The list is long. Based on these handicaps, there are several
poles of decision making that are generally poorly coordinated and in other
cases not.

Nature abhors a vacuum and if the internet is controlled by the U.S. and
its allies must take into account all these factors. it is evident
regardless of the presence of actors, all of which are of interest are, for
some, being managed and, in others, sent directly into their pockets.

Very slowly but surely, the rising generation, which is the generation of
digital technology and mastering this technology begins to weigh in the
balance the use and appropriation of digital technology.

It all depends on the methodology that we will use to give them the
opportunity to exhibit their talent.
