Well, most of them don't. Not yet. But they will before too much
longer. Some already do, the larger ones that take an active part in
technology issues, like the large consumer groups and other
public-interest organizations. To get an idea of them, take alook at
the participant list for the WTO's conference on e-commerce and
Internet governance, set for next fall, or the FTC conference in
June. One of the ICIIU's strongest supporters is the head of the
communications committee of a community board in New York that
represents a community of 125,000 people in Queens, and that is
trying to create community-wide IP networking. The process of public
awareness is slow, but inexorable.
