Comment Neelie (Kroes)
Making speeches talk
[...] My point isn't that the internet is like the road system: it isn't, they are different networks. My point is that, for any open network, finding the right balance is not obvious. When to step in and set out rules; or when to hold back and let people make their own choices. The approach needs to follow not from ideology, but from an understanding of how that particular network actually operates. Then we can find the right way forward to preserve its benefits, project them into the future, and best protect users' interests.
