It’s a challenging time for the Internet.
For most of us, the benefits of a globally-connected Internet were always clear.
Things have changed.
Security threats are mounting and people are starting to wonder if the Internet is failing us.
It’s clear we need to find solutions to improve security online, but we can’t do it alone.
An even greater danger may be the growing number of countries proposing uninformed policies or laws to regulate the Internet’s infrastructure.
This could literally break the Internet. A network of networks cannot be centrally controlled because it has no centre.
When governments try to regulate parts of the Internet that shouldn’t be regulated, it could disconnect people and countries around the world.
We can’t let this happen.
Luckily, there are people around the world collaborating to protect the Internet we know and love – and you can join them.
Together, we can build informed solutions to improve security online without breaking the architecture of the Internet.
We can only do this together. The Internet is for everyone because it is everyone.
Let’s save the Internet by not breaking it.
