These walled gardens will be rich with content and lovely to inhabit, but not necessarily the content we want or need.  Most of the the population will be satisfied and as the CS rep fro Belarus said yesterday at one of the Human Rights council side meetings, "we have Internet."  But as an Azerbaijani participant said at a meeting last year, is a walled garden the Internet.
