In reading this book, there are key themes that are constant such
as the notion of identity and identity sets; e-sovereignty and
privacy and most importantly the function of an Internet that is
inclusive, not “controlled” by a few organizations for their
own profitability. Certainly, “enterprising” the Internet has
been a process over these past years and there is no intent to set
judgement here but rather pause for a moment and reflect on the
impact of these technologies to individuals. Yes, this is The
Humanized Internet. These tenets may sound libertarian but in fact
we are speaking about core principles to guide the development and
perhaps the return of the Internet to the people especially those
who are underserved . “Do No Evil” should not be a company
motto but rather foundational to the development of any
technologies that do impact us as individual consumers of these
technologies and corresponding products. Indeed there is a polarity
between an Internet that is used for mass empowerment and one that
can be used for mass destruction. Privacy, security and the
management of your digital footprint should be done by you. With
the progression of Human and Machine interaction due to advances in
Biotech and Brain/Computer interface Cloud, Virtual and Mixed
Reality, we need to understand the impact of these technologies to
identity overall. Do we require a new definition of identity? What
is e-Sovereignty and it application moving forward if we posit that
the institutions that exist today may indeed no longer be relevant
in their current structure. We have read about the abuses when your
data falls into the hands of other entities, intentionally or not.
The Humanized Internet is therefore a call to action, your action.
