Book Navigating the Digital Highway

Download or read book Navigating the Digital Highway written by Elena Sterling and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2024-04-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of net neutrality cannot be overstated in the digital age. Throughout this book, we have explored the multifaceted aspects of net neutrality, examining its significance, implications, and the challenges it faces. From understanding the core principle of equal treatment for all data to analyzing its impact on innovation, free speech, and access to information, we have delved into the complexities of this crucial issue.Net neutrality serves as the bedrock of an open and equitable internet, ensuring that all users have equal access to online content and services without discrimination or interference from internet service providers (ISPs). By upholding the principles of equality, openness, and innovation online, net neutrality promotes a level playing field where startups, small businesses, and individuals can thrive alongside established players. However, the battle for net neutrality is far from over. As technological advancements continue to reshape the digital landscape and policymakers grapple with the complexities of internet regulation, the future of net neutrality remains uncertain. From the deployment of 5G networks to the rise of artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things, new challenges and opportunities will continue to emerge for preserving an open and neutral internet. Moving forward, it is essential for stakeholders to work together to develop solutions that promote competition, innovation, transparency, and accountability while safeguarding the principles of equality and openness online. By enacting strong regulatory policies, promoting transparency and accountability among ISPs and online platforms, and fostering technological solutions that promote net neutrality, we can ensure that the internet remains a vibrant and democratic space for generations to come. Ultimately, the fight for net neutrality is not just about preserving an open and neutral internet; it is about defending the democratic ideals upon which the internet was founded. In a world where access to information and communication is increasingly essential for participation in society, net neutrality is more than just a policy issue - it is a fundamental human right.

Book The Digital Silk Road

Download or read book The Digital Silk Road written by Jonathan E. Hillman and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2021-10-19 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An expert on China’s global infrastructure expansion provides an urgent look at the battle to connect and control tomorrow’s networks. From the ocean floor to outer space, China’s Digital Silk Road aims to wire the world and rewrite the global order. Taking readers on a journey inside China’s surveillance state, rural America, and Africa’s megacities, Jonathan Hillman reveals what China’s expanding digital footprint looks like on the ground and explores the economic and strategic consequences of a future in which all routers lead to Beijing. If China becomes the world’s chief network operator, it could reap a commercial and strategic windfall, including many advantages currently enjoyed by the United States. It could reshape global flows of data, finance, and communications to reflect its interests. It could possess an unrivaled understanding of market movements, the deliberations of foreign competitors, and the lives of countless individuals enmeshed in its networks. However, China’s digital dominance is not yet assured. Beijing remains vulnerable in several key dimensions, the United States and its allies have an opportunity to offer better alternatives, and the rest of the world has a voice. But winning the battle for tomorrow’s networks will require the United States to innovate and take greater risks in emerging markets. Networks create large winners, and this is a contest America cannot afford to lose.

Book Cartographies of Travel and Navigation

Download or read book Cartographies of Travel and Navigation written by James R. Akerman and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-11-15 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finding one’s way with a map is a relatively recent phenomenon. In premodern times, maps were used, if at all, mainly for planning journeys in advance, not for guiding travelers on the road. With the exception of navigational sea charts, the use of maps by travelers only became common in the modern era; indeed, in the last two hundred years, maps have become the most ubiquitous and familiar genre of modern cartography. Examining the historical relationship between travelers, navigation, and maps, Cartographies of Travel and Navigation considers the cartographic response to the new modalities of modern travel brought about by technological and institutional developments in the twentieth century. Highlighting the ways in which the travelers, operators, and planners of modern transportation systems value maps as both navigation tools and as representatives of a radical new mobility, this collection brings the cartography of travel—by road, sea, rail, and air—to the forefront, placing maps at the center of the history of travel and movement. Richly and colorfully illustrated, Cartographies of Travel and Navigation ably fills the void in historical literature on transportation mapping.
