The term "Infobahn" is a German borrowing frequently used in the Canadian and American press. It has recently undergone a semantic shift to mean "a high speed computer network" (CAOXD, 1998). The term "electronic highway" comes to information technology from the field of road transportation where it refers to an electronically-controlled highway (traffic flow and user security). 12, record 8, English, - information%20highway
