BRISBANE, Australia--Concerns about the security
of messages transmitted on the Internet are no longer
valid, the founder of the World Wide Web Tim
Berners-Lee said today.
However, Berners-Lee told the Seventh International
World Wide Web Conference that privacy of
information about users was still a top priority for the
international World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), an
organization that oversees the use of the Internet.
