The idea I remember was that in many places our government plays a minor role compared to Coca Cola, Nike, Google, etc. Their request was that our government work with our other interests WITHOUT assuming they own the podium. Increasingly, I am seeing high level wonks who don't even realize they aren't in the game making up rules and expecting others to obey. The French don't let Sarkozy cook. Why should we let him control our Internet? Before the last Presidential election, I went to a conference about “Ten Things We Want The Next President To Know” by Wired/New America Foundation.

Governments should provide access to technology, but not Sarkozy-style control of content. Positive roles for government include free broadband (although corporations are apparently against that: http://ow.ly/5io4f) and supporting a continued Arab Spring (http://ow.ly/5ipq4).
