INTERNET SECURITY
With the internet being a major source of information in modern society (for better or for worse), the issue of internet security has been given a great deal of attention. In fact, both the Republican and Democratic campaign platforms have dedicated entire clauses to it. Democrats would essentially preserve internet freedom as it is—largely a free environment, flawed though it is with piracy and illicit content, open to anyone willing to contribute. Their platform would impose little in the way of restrictions and would instead emphasize information security on the internet.
