Article discusses the need for reform and restructuring of the InterNet -- in a manner analogous with post 9/11, there is recognition of the cost of openness and a determination to change things. The problem in both cases is that the bathwater and the baby have to be carefully separated, and the nature of the InterNet decision-making process makes unintended consequences [because non-technical 'voices' will not be represented] more likely.
