The Internet as Public Good Symposium is a small, experimental and invitation-only event that focuses on key issues relating to the current and future Internet -- censorship, the digital divide, net neutrality, government policy, open data, free software and open source, peer production models, and so on.
We seek the participation of people who understand the relevant issues, who can speak for those affected by them and who can think lucidly about the consequences of possible actions. From this discussion, we hope to refine both our own and the global understanding of the problems and promise intrinsic in these issues.
