How does Frostfires.com see the future of e-democracy and citizenship?
As broadband access around the world continues to increase, we see a time when interacting with politicians via all-in-one living room ‘hubs’ will be as natural as flicking on an episode of popular television dramas. This will pave the way for e-voting systems across local and national issues. The governments around the world hold huge amounts of data that is presently not available for public use. The online population will continue to create more content around important issues. For example, data will become available that will allow patients to make more informed decisions about what medicines or hospitals to use in their treatment. There will be an ever increasing volume of direct conversations between government and the online population and as a result increased data transparency.
