     OXFORD TARGETS THE INTERNET'S IMPACT ON SOCIETY
     Oxford University has announced plans to create the Oxford Internet
     Institute, a multidisciplinary center focused on the societal and
     ethical impact of the Internet. According to UK Secretary of State for
     Education David Blunkett, one of the center's top priorities will be
     research issues surrounding cryptography, intellectual property and
     security. Research programs will target the fundamental shifts in
     human behavior and interactions as a result of technology, comparative
     media law and policy, and creating new educational software.
