This doesn’t happen often in surveys: Talking to dozens of enterprises earlier this year, an astounding 100 percent told me they were expecting to host networking or IT services on the Internet. The bad news was that over half said they thought there were serious issues to be overcome in these applications, and a full 30 percent reported explicitly bad experiences.

Companies that develop GPS-based products to determine a person’s location strive for the utmost accuracy because they know these devices not only offer tremendous convenience, but also could save lives in emergencies. What few people realize is it could be just as vital to foil that accuracy. We had better realize the dangers of location data – and how to “fake out” the trackers.

Environmental organization Global Action Plan studies show that carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from the information and communications technology industry exceed the carbon output of the entire aviation industry. From this, it’s estimated that the Internet is generating 5.3 percent of world energy consumption. But, though the Internet is a CO2 contributor to greenhouse gases, it also offers energy and carbon emission alternatives that are more attainable than those in other industries.

Whether the discussion is raised in an email hoax or a serious proposal by a fellow ThinkerNetter, a practical solution is currently lacking. But what if the stamp charge is not collected by the government or ISP, but paid to the email recipient? The benefits there could be sufficient motivation to explore possible implementations.
