underpins beliefs about the sustained growth in the use of platforms for creating and sharing user

rising profits from progress in the fields of cloud computing and new business models associated with data

This trend is underpinned further by the fast growth of smartphones, tablets and other devices enabling

data. In fact, 24%of Europeans reported having accessed the internet through a mobile phone and 6

%reported using a tablet. Similarly, the fact that only 17%of the population reported using the internet for

looking for jobs and 5%reported having participated in an online course also suggests that there is

potential to be captured easily. Despite the gradual decrease in digital divides, the potential is even clearer

Percentage of active internet users using microblogging3 Source: Unimccann 2013 2. 2. Limited global connectedness Although there appears to be a quasi-univocal consensus on the sustained pace of the growth in

connectivity at a global scale through social computing, a closer look at the evidence for connectedness

While the majority of the global population is projected to be connected to the web in the forthcoming

decades, internet traffic remains mainly domestic (Ghemawat & Altman 2012. Although social network 3 The term †active internet users†refers to individuals who use the internet every day or every other day (Unimccann

2012). ) Microblogging is the use of social network services specifically created for the sharing of brief entries and

content, such as Jaiku or Twitter 18 services are perceived as global platforms, 84.2%of Facebook relationships and a large percentage of

Twitter relationships were found to be clustered along country lines (Gonzalez et al. 2011; Kulshrestha et al.,

, 2012; Ugander et al. 2011), as illustrated in Figure E. 1. 3. Consequently, the future may be potentially

less globalised and more determined by local and national cultures and preferences as opposed to a rising

global value system based on the deepening and broadening of global networks Although the level of globalisation of connected technologies is uncertain,

there is some evidence that the use of these technologies may have significant impacts on the online and offline behaviour of users.

This influence, merging online and offline spheres, is exerted mainly through the potential to connect individuals, facilitate the flow of information

and change the options for self-expression and exerting influence over others. Ultimately, it is likely that the growing population of individuals using social

According to the literature, a positive relationship between internet penetration and democracy exists although the scale of the influence is not uniform.

For instance, although analysis found that internet penetration signiï cantly increased democracy ratings, this relationship varied signiï cantly by region

These findings suggest that the internet is not by itself sufficient to promote regime changes,

As extensions of the effects potentially exerted by offline networks online social networks have been found to be an effective influencing tool for political participation in

some cases, such as the 2010 elections for the US Congress (Bond 2012), but the effect of these tools and

and seek answers to societal problems. 11 10 For EU countries, see footnote 10 above.

Governments ask companies to remove or review content for many different reasons. For example, some content removals are requested owing to allegations of defamation, while others

are owing to allegations that the content violates local laws prohibiting hate speech or adult content.

Laws surrounding these issues vary by country, and the requests reflect the legal context of a given jurisdiction
