About this dataset
In 2018 InternetNZ conducted a consolidated research project that incorporated three historical research projects for both the former NZRS, and InternetNZ. This project covered business and consumer use and attitudes towards domain names, as well as public perceptions of the Internet in general. In 2019 they have replicated a section of this research project, to understand any changes in consumer perceptions of the Internet. The survey follows the same processes for 2018, however from 2019 onwards, the survey focused only on consumer use of and perceptions of the Internet.
