Does society want governments to take on the role of protecting the Internet? Should the Internet be considered a Critical Infrastructure and therefore be overseen by governments? Will such actions undermine privacy and liberty or will it be demanded by citizens to protect personal access and online security?

The Singapore government recently announced a policy shift to protect citizens' access to safe networking, just as it provides critical infrastructure resources like clean water and sanitation. This precedent may be hotly debated by populations in countries around the world as each nation will ultimately need to determine what is best for them.

                       Government should not do anything to their citizen's internet they start trying to help. unfortunately this gives to much power to the governing body, absolute power corrupts absolutely. in the u.s its gotten really bad and getting worse, often the ones making said decisions have no clue what they are doing & they cause more problems then they solve. like the mandatory back door issue in windows or android/google OS. by requiring access they  have caused security issues hackers easily exploit.
