Dear Ando,

Picking up from your last paragraph ("As Microsoft distorted the way how the Internet originally operates, a next generation empire may try to control and potentially distort the way the Internet operates. I hope that the Internet will evolve further to benefit all the citizens and to keep its soundness to efficiently and fairly facilitate communications at various levels") perhaps you would like to consider the relationship between open standards and open software and their impact in keeping the Internet an open access platform. I tend to think that open source processes are powerful 'magnets' that attract standards to form around them. The economic logic (anti-rivalness, increasing returns, etc) is part of the reason. The other part is that the open source process removes intellectual property barriers that hamper standard setting.
