e - colonisation ?

How?

Technical tools of e-colonisation

proprietary protocols

proprietary data formats

proprietary software

Nobody (north or south) should really want this...

An alternative: the Internet model

There is free and free

Free software advantages

An economy of service

BUT...

Legal tools of e-colonisation

restrictive software licences

software patents

Patents =/= Copyright

Software patents are special

Private copyright on public research

Conclusions

If you are a government

If you are a company
