Description:

In the future Internet, everyday devices are increasingly networked together with one another. It will, therefore, pose much greater reliability, security, and privacy concerns than the Web does now because users will be much more dependent on the technology in their daily lives.

A lot of infomation about users of internet maybe gathered without their agreement and knowledge. Government agencies store private information in secured databases though they are relying more and more on the internet.

Therefore, even if users are aware of or agree for the information about their behaviour to be colleted, networked computers will store this private information. Hacker attacks on such computers may lead to information leaks.

Enablers:

Factors which strengthen this driving force. (these are actually other driving forces, and you can link to them in the wiki!)

1. Dominant client/server architecture (Windows/Outlook or some soft-/hardware on the server side). Why?
2. ...

Inhibitors:

Factors which weaken this driving force. (these are actually other driving forces, and you can link to them in the wiki!)
1. Factor 1 description why
2. Factor 2 description why

Paradigms:

Changes in ways of thinking about the world due to the driving force.

Experts:

Sources for additional information about this driving force. (if you have found people, put the links to them)

Timing:

Dates for key milestones in the development of the driving force.

Web Resources:

Useful resources on the web relating to this force.
