Executive Insight: Lynn St. Amour, President & CEO, Internet Society

Lynn St Amour, President and CEO explains to Ian Scales why, despite some telco claims to the contrary, the Internet model is not 'broken' and needs no radical surgery to keep it relevant and technically fit for purpose. Those who want to change the fundamental Internet rules need to re-think their approach and 'lean in' to support and  prosper from its open development environment.
