Conclusions

The world is still a long way from agreeing upon a common and extensive set of information society access indicators. Where data do exist, they are sometimes unreliable, confusing, incomplete, out of date or not internationally comparable. They are also often difficult to locate. The problem is particularly acute for developing nations, some of which lack the technical expertise or resources to collect, compile and disseminate ICT statistics.
