Happy New Year. Thanks for sharing. Very insightful reading. Sometimes I step back and look at human nature, especially focusing on money, power and control -- and how these play out across all Internet Governance conversations. Then I revisit Africa's historical situation in all past generational revolutions. Cannot help but conclude that under the current set-up Africa is confined to and will remain in the digital plantations. Unless something radically different comes to it's online liberation. best wishes, Provocatively yours, Alex [Sent from my tiny screen wireless device.
