Should states be allowed access to all communications? What level of privacy should an individual expect? Who owns the Internet? In this fascinating starting point to understanding the wider subject of the Internet and Internet safety, explore these questions through topics like:

The What's the Issue? series tackles engaging, thought-provoking subjects chosen from the headlines and public debates.
