Zero rating and how people get connected to the Internet appeared to be among the dominant topics of conversation at IGF 2015. Helani based her comments in the multiple sessions she participated in on the findings on research that showed that people connect because of attractive content.
In my comments at the big data session, I drew extensively on our experience in working with big data. In fact, the principal point I made was that many of the people who were trying to make rules have no idea what the research involves.
In another session, the discussion was on hindrances to small businesses located in the developing world seeking to join the global Internet economy. The work we had done on broadband quality of service and through our engagement with ESCAP on the Asia Pacific Information Superhighway was the basis of my comments here.
I was informed that Phyu Phyu’s note on her work had been favorably received.
