Her former CEO Google and its president A, Eric Schmidt, estimates that China's multi-trillion dollar infrastructure could cause the Internet to break up.
Eric Schmidt briefly said that it is very likely to see a web divided into two. It will be dominated by China and the other will be driven by the US, CNBC said.
"The most likely scenario now is not a distortion, but a branching out into a Chinese and a non-Chinese internet driven by America." Reported.
Schmidt, who recently visited China, has distanced himself from the country's technology scene, but warned that there was a "real risk" that the Chinese government would gain full control of parts of the internet through agreements such as its giant Belt and Road infrastructure project. Of China.
“We're going to see fantastic product leadership and services από την Κίνα. Όμως υπάρχει ένας πραγματικός κίνδυνος ότι μαζί με αυτά τα προϊόντα και τις υπηρεσίες θα υπάρξει και ένα διαφορετικό ηγετικό καθεστώς από την κυβέρνηση, με λογοκρισία, controland much more.”
"Look at the way BRI works - the Belt and Road initiative, which involves 60 countries. "It is very likely that these countries will start taking over the infrastructure owned by China but with some loss of freedom."
Schmidt's comments about a controlled internet from China come amid internal discussions taking place at Google about a censored version of the machine search which the company is preparing for China under the code name Dragonfly.
These comments can not be accidental, as recently, America has banned state employees from having devices from Chinese technology companies Huawei and ZTE.
Google has withdrawn from China 2010 on censorship regulations imposed by the government. 2018, with the Dragonfly project announcement, thousands of Google workers have signed a letter that opposes Google's return to the Chinese market.
It was one of the last moral dilemmas of company employees, as the previous one was for Google's participation in an AI project for the US Department of Defense.
