“Who has not yet realized, after “Snowden” and his revelations, that our dear “cyberspace” is no longer in the hands of its users and, alas, has not been for a long time, but that it has become a high-risk space under heavy surveillance?” (P. Riemens)
“What is called ‘economics’ is really psychology on steroids…”

He advises that policy-makers and education stakeholders determine the scope of this supplementary intervention and understand its impact to better shape the inevitable overlaps of these two domains.”
