Gates predicts boom, but warns on privacy | |

Software titan Bill Gates has predicted a tech-driven economic boom at the end of the decade as new software systems and internet use increase productivity, but said many people were avoiding the internet because of online privacy fears. Gates told an audience of business and political leaders at the Italian senate that the 1990s had only "scratched the surface" of the technological frontier. However, this is the "digital decade where things like electronic commerce, electronic government, efficient health care management, and lots of consumer applications will become common sense, where you'll just expect them to be there and be available". | ||
