Professor Jonathan Zittrain of the Oxford Internet Institute has published a book entitled “The Future of the Internet and How To Stop It”.
In it he says the latest must-have gadgets like the XBox 360 b and iPhone stifle creativity and turn their owners into passive users of technology.
Increasingly tighter controls on production of software and technology, adds Zittrain, will kill the innovation and open, cooperative spirit that produced the internet as we know it today.
