Fiona Asonga of TESPOK </div><div><br></div><div>There really wasn't any one position that was taken - I did however try to get Murungi of Google to take a stand on issues like<b> the right to be forgotten</b> and the <b>official position of Google on Net Neutrality</b>...suffice it to say he hedged that one!! :) - besides the fact that we needed to include issues like:-</div><div><br></div><div>1. Universal and affordable Access</div><div>2. Third Party Liability</div><div>3. Big Brother tendencies of government and how this needs to be tampered with the increasing need for National Security concerns in the wake of terrorism and other security issues.</div><div>4.
