Avira survey: Hardly any interest in current Internet developments
According to an Avira survey, most Internet users couldn't care less about Web 2.0. Furthermore, they don't believe the Internet has evolved in any significant way.
According to a survey conducted by Avira, a provider of Internet security solutions, most Internet users are indifferent to Web 2.0. Just under 11,000 out of 13,500 people who responded to Free-av.com do not believe that the web has evolved significantly. They voted for the statement "Web 2.0, Web 3.0: for me, this is just another marketing-heavy buzzword and therefore old wine in new bottles."
Around nine percent of people stated that they did not even know what Web 2.0 meant. 3.5 percent consider the increasing target group-specific approach to Internet users to be problematic, as this would involve monitoring user habits. Only three percent of participants are optimistic and expect a lot from Web 3.0.
Web 2.0 has remained a specialist topic that no one has communicated to the broad user base in a comprehensible way, Rainer Witzgall, Vice Executive President of Avira, was quoted as saying in a press release on Tuesday. There is still a great need for education.
