OUR DEVICES ARE GETTING MORE USEFUL
For the first time, we are now jamming 19 billion transistors into a single smartphone chip.
They became faster, with 62% of smartphones users having next-generation 5G connected phones.
All this has led to users consuming a record 73.7 trillion megabytes of mobile data in one year.
The progress, speed, and connections that smartphones offer have helped us do more in our personal lives.

INNOVATION SUPPORTS
THE ECONOMY
This accelerating set of opportunities is helping lift the economy.
The app ecosystem supports millions of Americans, across all 50 states, and has become a huge part of our economy.
And software jobs pay great too – more than two and a half times average pay.
The work they do helps small businesses grow and succeed.
TRUST
IS ESSENTIAL
TRUST is essential for continued progress.
Uptake of new technology only happens when we can trust that something new will work better, protect our privacy, safety, and security.
Consumers demand more trustworthiness from the companies that make and use technologies.
BUSINESSES CAN INCREASE GROWTH WITH DIGITAL TRUST
99% of enterprises say they have more confidence in digital trust today than in the past.
One study showed that digital trust can increase a business’ annual growth and profitability.
And bold leadership is helping us get even farther:
With the CHIPS and Science Act, Congress invested to advance more trusted American technologies, which will lead to more trustworthy AI, better cybersecurity technologies, more resilient networks, and more trustworthy supply chains.
EVERY COMMUNITY CAN BENEFIT FROM INCREASED OPPORTUNITY
Let’s make sure technologies are more inclusive by design.
Let’s make sure that new products and services are designed by, and for, a more diverse group of people.
And make sure that every community – especially those traditionally left behind – can benefit from the good paying jobs and opportunities that technology can create.
TRUST
IS A STRATEGIC ADVANTAGE
Companies now offer better privacy, more choices, and enhanced security to their users.
Encryption technology is now accessible for more messages and on the cloud, and millions of consumers took advantage of the choice to ask not to be tracked online.
Trust is now a strategic advantage, and it’s one that companies across America have begun to take advantage of.
FOCUS ON IMPROVED PRIVACY AND SECURITY
Congress is continuing to focus on advancing privacy policies to protect more Americans, and more than 60 countries agreed to put trust at the heart of the Future of the Internet.
To get ready for what’s next, we need to build on where we’ve been, and double-down on efforts to improve trust.
Despite all the progress, there are still enormous challenges putting our trust at risk.
Cloud data breaches more than tripled between 2013 and 2022:
Organizations are still suffering from rampant ransomware attacks:
TRUST
NEEDS TO BE AT THE CENTER OF EVERYTHING
As America’s tech leadership continues to transform the world, consumers have told us that trust needs to be at the center of everything.
They want privacy built in by default.
They want strong encryption on their devices, in their messages, and in the cloud.
They want their apps reviewed by experts to protect their safety, stop malware, ensure privacy, and protect against scams.
They want more tools to protect kids, and they want less harmful content.
