that’s a great question. So the inter part of the internet is really what’s important to me. The idea of end to end innovation precisely as you put it, permissionless innovation, is really at a core of the “inter”ness of the internet, otherwise we might as well go back to the national ads. And so the point here is, when innovation happens it’s the innovators who work with the society to prove that innovation is of some value to the society while also changing the innovation that’s needed to work with not against the societal norm. But that presumes a certain sense of transparency and accountability of how the norm works. In Taiwan we say we have radical transparency because, on the Join platform you can see each and every budget item, each and every KPI. You can demand the administrator to give an account and even change the course of policy if you get 5,000 signatures.
