RSA Event: The Future of the Internet with Jonathan Zittrain April 24, 2008

With Jonathan Zittrain Chair in Internet Governance and Regulation at the University of Oxford and a Principal of the Oxford Internet Institute.

The Internet is primed for a meltdown-and the most obvious cures are just as bad. The engine that has catapulted the Internet from backwater to ubiquity is sputtering precisely because of its runaway success. With the unwitting help of its users, the generative Internet is on a path to a lockdown, ending its cycle of innovation – and facilitating unsettling new kinds of control.

Places are free and open to all but advance booking is recommended.
