My comment is about Kim Dotcom interview and the issue about legal or illegal information exchange by Internet.
The large store media by Internet raise a challenge to global society. The possibility to share information to people around the world is a valuable tool to research, learn and increase the knowledge of people. But, this possibility is open to share resources as movies, games, music and video which they can damage the people jobs. Because, while the people buy fewer these entertainment media, the jobs related are diminished.
Another point of view, is to take advantage of Internet. The corporatives has to find the ways to bring near this entertainment cheaper, faster and with more quality. The consumer preferences should establish the rules to choose which satisfy him, completely.
Thus, I see two challenges, one to community to define what information post in Internet is legal or illegal. The other is a technological challenge to find mechanisms to make available the information to correct people.
Thanks
