Threats to our ability to communicate, conduct commerce and retain privacy and trust online are continually on the rise. In addition to identity theft, spam and phishing, concerns include cybercrime, cyberwar, cyberterror, pornography, viruses and network attacks. This video about Internet security issues features interviews shot at the 2007 Internet Governance Forum in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The Rio IGF was the second of five annual global events that attract stakeholders from all walks of life who gathered to discuss issues tied to the future of information and communications technologies.

This documentary was produced for Imagining the Internet http://imaginingtheinternet.org , an online resource exposing future possibilities while simultaneously providing a peek back at the past. In it, you will find the words of thousands of people from every corner of the world, from today and from yesterday, making thousands of predictive pronouncements about the future of humankind.

The multimedia section of the site includes short films and dozens of video interviews - all of them about the hopes and fears for the future of networked communications. Imagining the Internet is a project based at Elon University.

    About the statue of the Soviet soldier in Estonia, it must be noted that Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania were on the side of the Nazis to whom they delivered, or simply slaughtered, tens of thousands of Jews, and the Soviet military beat the Nazis.

    With regard to personal internet security, I strongly recommend AdAware (lavasoftusa.com) which will clean out malware - I use it several times a day - and SpywareBlaster ( http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html ) which will prevent malware from accessing your hard-drive. These two, added to your firewall, will help to keep trouble out of your computer.

    I never ever buy anything online, I refuse to have a PayPal account (too many people have been ripped-off by PayPal - see http://www.aboutpaypal.org/home ), and I don't do any of my banking transactions online, I go to the bank for that. This way, nobody has access to my bank account number or any other details. I plan to get one of those prepaid and reloadable credit cards so as to pay for things online, with only enough money on it for the purchases I intend to make. This way, I cannot be ripped-off.
