Purpose - The aim of this paper is to review developments on the internet, especially those of general cybernetic interest. Design/methodology/approach - A review is made of sources of comment on recent protest activities, most notably in New York and London, the protests aimed at financial institutions and the gross inequalities resulting from their activities. The comments include concrete suggestions for improvements. Findings - The paper finds that the activists include thoughtful and articulate members whose views deserve careful attention. An indicator of the strength of their case is a review in the New York Times of the "panic" reactions of moneyed interests. Practical implications - Suggestions for improvements are made in the material reviewed. Some of them depend on worldwide imposition of regulations, with no faction "breaking ranks". The issues are deeply felt and protest will continue, with worldwide impact. Originality/value - It is hoped this is a valuable periodic review. |
