It is said that Berners - Lee is a senior adviser to the government project in the field of information designed to allow all Internet users using the rules of information that was previously blocked. " And semi-inventor of the Internet access to information the fundamental freedoms of citizens.

He also noted that it is very important as well as in developing countries, adding that "government transparency and lack of fear of dissemination of information to the public the rules that give investors the confidence to initiate projects in those countries." On the other hand, some organizations around the world using the rules of information open and available to countries to pursue formal institutions in some cases and areas. In Brazil, for example, the Web site function to collect all the information on the incomes of politicians and their wealth to eliminate political for some, and others in the fall elections. India, Brazil, says journalist Fernando Rodriguez, who started in 2000 a website called "politicians Brazil" (Politicos do Brasil) is a database which stores all information on politicians, particularly in the financial area that location contributed to the sacking of hundreds of politicians after the elections in 2008.
