Paul Ceglia claims that he has a 2003 contract that makes him a partner in Facebook.

The number of Internet connections will reach 18.9 billion by 2016, up from 10.3 billion in 2011, driven by a proliferation of smart phones, tablets and other handheld devices, according to an annual survey by Cisco Systems.

The number of connections works out to almost 2.5 for each person on Earth in 2016. India is expected to have the fastest rate of Internet traffic growth, followed by Brazil and South Africa, the survey found.

"More and more mobile devices are coming on the network that are causing this growth," said Doug Webster, a vice president for San Jose's Cisco who discussed the report at a news briefing Wednesday in Washington.

In 2016, the volume of Internet traffic is expected to be measured for the first time in zettabytes - or 1 trillion gigabytes, Webster said.

Traffic that year is expected to reach 1.3 zettabytes, or 110 exabytes per month, almost a fourfold increase from about 31 exabytes per month in 2011, the survey found.

Google Chairman Eric Schmidt is set for questioning by the Federal Trade Commission as the agency speeds up its antitrust probe of the world's most popular search engine, according to three people familiar with the situation.

Schmidt's deposition is scheduled to take place as soon as next week, one of the people said. FTC investigators are also interviewing two lower-level Google officials this week, another of the people said. The three people declined to be identified because they weren't authorized to speak publicly about the matter.

A law firm is seeking to withdraw from a New York man's lawsuit claiming half the Facebook holdings of CEO Mark Zuckerberg, according to Dean Boland, another of the man's lawyers.

Internet connections to reach 19 billion by 2016

FORTUNE -- The bureaucrats at the United Nations, prodded by developing countries and exemplars of democracy like Russia and China, have hit on an enticing new way to control global communication and commerce: They want to regulate the Internet.

It's one of those rare issues in this heated campaign season that is uniting the political left, right, and middle in Washington. Business leaders beyond Silicon Valley would be smart to sit up and take notice, too -- and fast. American opponents are being seriously outpaced by U.N. plans to tax and regulate that are already grinding forward in advance of a December treaty negotiation in Dubai.

"Having the U.N. or any international community regulate the Internet only means you're going to have the lowest common denominator of 193 countries," notes Richard Grenell, who served as spokesman and adviser to four U.S. ambassadors to the U.N. between 2001 and 2009.

That the U.N. too often acts as a repository of the world's lowest common denominator is a familiar complaint from American conservatives. Witness blocked attempts to take action against bad actors like Syria. Now those fears are being realized over the Internet, which has a nasty habit of spreading free speech -- and with it, discontent and revolt.

The conduit is a little known U.N. agency called the International Telecommunication Union, which coordinates cross-border issues such asradio spectrum and satellite orbits. At the December 2012 World Conference on International Telecommunications in Dubai (bureaucratically titled the WCIT-12) the ITU will consider expanding its purview to the Internet. That may be six months away -- but ITU working groups are already laying the groundwork.

Behind the effort are efficient censor machines like China, and autocrats like Russian President Vladimir Putin, who last year declared his desire to establish "international control" of the Internet. These are "not exactly bastions of Internet freedom," as Florida Republican Senator Marco Rubio put it during a hearing last month. "Any place that bans certain terms from search should not be a leader in an international Internet regulatory framework."

The House Communications and Technology subcommittee convenes its own hearing Thursday.

Also pushing for international controls are developing countries hungry not only for political control, but also for new sources of revenue. (Allowing foreign phone companies to collect fees on international traffic is one proposal under discussion.) Grenell, who saw the regulatory effort spring up from the beginning a decade ago, notes that developing countries at the U.N. "get excited about taking up global issues that will give them more control and influence over commerce, that require businesses to seek their input and approval."
