There is a huge variety of eInclusion Intermediary actors and roles. Most of these actors belong to the public sector (58%) and mainly consist of public libraries, municipal/local government organizations and government-run telecentres. Third sector organizations make up almost 40% of the sample and include associations, charitable organizations, or foundations and NGOs combined. The private sector (6%) is mostly represented by private training organizations and cybercafés.  The majority of eInclusion intermediaries are small organizations with less than ten employees and operating budgets of less than €100,000. In addition, network membership seems particularly relevant as 60% of these organizations belong to one or more networks.  The services most often offered to users are a) ICT access to computers and the Internet (88% of the organisations offer this) and b) Basic ICT digital literacy training (80%). Employment-related training services are offered by half of the intermediaries. Finally, access to government and social services and access to online courses is offered by 45% of the organizations. The research estimated that there are almost 250,000 eInclusion organizations in the EU27, or an average of one eInclusion organization for every 2,000 inhabitants.

"Au tournant du troisième millénaire, après des années de travail pionnier aux marges, l'éducation aux médias a finalement attiré l'attention des décideurs. Elle a le vent en poupe parmi les membres des trois secteurs, public, privé et civique. Les définitions, le développement de programmes et la création d'outils pédagogiques ne sont plus des questions d'intérêt pour les communautés de pratique seulement : ce sont des options porteuses d'avenir, qui requièrent des stratégies qui peuvent être partagées, évaluées et adoptées dans un esprit de changement social qui va au-delà de la réforme scolaire et de l'emploi des jeunes."

"Not that it matters a lot for MPs and politicians in general, but it's quite interesting that if someone "anonymously" edits a wikipedia article, wikimedia stores the IP of the editor and provides it to anyone that wants to download the wiki archives. If the IP range is known, or someone has the legal authority within a country to force an ISP to reveal the owner of an IP, it is quite easy to spot the actual person behind an "anonymous" edit. But if someone creates an account to edit wikipedia articles, wikimedia does not publish the IPs of its users, the account database is private. To get an IP of a user, one would need to take wikimedia to courts to force them to reveal that account's IP address. Since every wikipedia article edit history is available for anyone to download, one is actually "more anonymous to the public" if he/she logs in or creates a (new) account every time before editing an article, than editing the same article without an account. Unless someone is afraid that wikimedia will leak/disclose their account's IPs."
