Who’s Who in Internet Politics: A Taxonomy of Information Technology Policy Perspectives

The debate about the future of the Internet is more politically charged than ever. Internet policy issues are becoming more central. All groups involved in Internet policy share a goal of a robust Internet ecosystem but have sometimes vastly different definitions of robust and different views on how to achieve that goal. In ITIF's report, Who's Who in Internet Politics: A Taxonomy of Information Technology Policy Perspectives, we identify nine distinct groups shaping Internet policy and how these groups view key Internet policy issues, including net neutrality, copyright, and privacy.
