  • Internet Users Per 100 Inhabitants
    5. SECTION ON PERSONAL DATA ON THE INTERNET 5.1 Introduction: The context of conditions of access to Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in Latin America The conditions of access to and use of information and communication technology (ICT) differ substantially in developed countries and in the developing world. While the former are concerned with issues related to network use, for the latter, universal access continues to be a challenge present on the agenda of their public policies and governments.40 Historically, the use of the Internet in Latin America begins in 1996 and evolves slowly: in 1998, less than 1% of the population was connected (Hilbert, 2001,) a figure that represented the highest- income individuals. As of that year, the percentage of the Latin American population on the Internet began to expand and rapidly evolve, reaching 9.9 million in 2000, a number that jumped to 60.5 million in 200541. Graph 13 shows the evolution of the number of Brazilian and Mexican Internet users from 2000 to 2010: Graph 13: Number of Internet users per 100 inhabitants Internet users per 100 inhabitants 40 A research project of the UNCTAD performed in 2002 in 51 countries shows the differences between these two groups of countries with regard to the strategies used to develop their information society. A concern with awareness, training and education appear repeatedly in both groups. However, the developed countries tend to prioritize regulatory and legal aspects, while the developing countries prioritize the development of infrastructure and the universalization of access (UNCTAD, 2002). 41 E-Marketer data available at: www.emarketer.com/Reports/All?Latam_aug06.aspx.

    July 18, 2012 Chairman Julius Genachowski Federal Communications Commission 445 12th Street SW Washington, DC 20554 Re: Letter, CG Docket No. 09-158, CC Docket No. 98-170, WC Docket No. 04-36 Dear Chairman Genachowski, Open data and an independent, transparent measurement framework must be the cornerstones of any scientifically credible broadband Internet access measurement program. The undersigned members of the academic and research communities therefore respectfully ask the Commission to remain committed to the principles of openness and transparency and to allow the scientific process to serve as the foundation of the broadband measurement program. Measuring network performance is complex. Even among those of us who focus on this topic as our life’s work, there are disagreements. The scientific process happens best in the sunlight and that can only happen when as many eyes as possible are able to look at a shared set of data, work to replicate results, and assess its meaning and impact. This ensures the conclusions from the broadband measurement allow for meaningful, data-driven policy making. Since the inception of the broadband measurement program, those of us who work on Internet research have lauded its precedent-setting commitment to open-data and transparency. Many of us have engaged with this program, advising on network transparency and measurement methodology and using the openly-released raw data as a part of our research. However, we understand that some participants in the program have proposed significant changes that would transform an open measurement process into a closed one. Specifically, that the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is considering a proposal to replace the Measurement Lab server infrastructure with closed infrastructure, run by the participating Internet service providers (ISPs) whose own speeds are being measured.

As of 2009, it was home to the largest population of internet users in Latin America and the fourth largest in the world.1 The country first connected to the internet in 1990, and connectivity is now available in most areas through a variety of technologies, though some infrastructural limitations remain.2 Several legal and judicial actions threatened free online expression in 2009 and 2010. There is an ongoing trend in which private litigants and official bodies sue internet- service providers (ISPs) and other internet companies, such as Google, and send take-down notices to blogging and social-networking platforms, such as Orkut. However, pending legislation would formalize an appeals process for such actions. In recent years, civic participation through internet media has increased, including in 3 response to the proposed Civil Rights Framework for the Internet in Brazil. Moreover, 1 International Telecommunications Union (ITU), “ICT Statistics 2009—Internet,” http://www.itu.int/ITU- D/icteye/Reporting/ShowReportFrame.aspx?ReportName=/WTI/InformationTechnologyPublic&ReportFormat=HTML4.0& RP_intYear=2009&RP_intLanguageID=1&RP_bitLiveData=False.

Há 20 anos começava a nascer ali tudo o que se Marcos de Oliveira conhece hoje da grande rede mundial de computadores Ilustração Guilherme Lepca no país. “Para nós a chegada da internet não foi surpresa, estávamos esperando, porque ela estava crescendo nos Estados Unidos e sabíamos que seria mais fácil fazer um computador da marca Digital conversar com outro IBM, por exemplo”, diz Demi Getschko, o então superinten- dente do Centro de Processamento de Dados da FAPESP e atual diretor presidente do Núcleo de Informação e Coordenação do Ponto BR (NIC.br), entidade que é o braço executivo do Comitê Gestor da Internet (CGI) e coordena os serviços da rede no Brasil. A entrada da internet na Fundação se deu porque havia uma conexão direta com o Fermilab, o laboratório de física de altas energias especializado no estudo de partículas atômicas, com sede na cidade de Batavia, em Illinois, nos Estados Unidos. Essa linha conectada em 1989 dava acesso aos pesquisadores brasileiros às informações e a contatos com seus pares naquela instituição norte-americana e em outras daquele país e da Europa por meio de uma das predecessoras da internet, a Bitnet.
