“…A particular focus on information seeking and longer-term life outcomes combined with a governance approach is missing in the literature. Digital media have permeated all spheres of life in Europe and many world regions (see Allmann & Blank, 2021;Hutchinson & Kerr, 2021;Karaboga et al, 2017;.

Digital media have permeated all spheres of life in many world regions and drastically changed how people seek information to satisfy their everyday knowledge needs. Successfully fulfilling these needs can impact subjective well-being and life outcomes. This is pronounced in transition-al phases with increased knowledge needs such as emerging adulthood. These needs and their fulfillment are socially structured, for example through skills differences. Simultaneously, how knowledge can be acquired through digital media is also dependent on their structure and governance. This paper contributes first to a better understanding of how sociotechnical infrastructures change, how and where they can be shaped by whom, and what is ultimately required for a future web of knowledge (epistemic web); and second, to making the effects of individual information seeking practices on life outcomes and well-being empirically addressable. Equitable digital societies require understanding and governing how digital media enable access to which knowledge. Considering the knowledge needs and dynamic life trajectories in the digital society, research is needed that can provide critical empirical and theoretical insights for the future of human communication and well-being.

“…On the one hand, this activity was due to missed opportunities since the proliferation of the Internet in the 1990s and of digital services and smart devices since the middle of the last decade, which is regarded as the reason why the EU has lost ground to US and Asian competitors in the digital economy. On the other hand, the EU has been seriously striving to shape innovation in a way that it is compatible with people's needs and European fundamental rights (Karaboga et al 2017). It is the political context of the EU attempting to protect fundamental rights while maintaining its role in the global economy, within which such efforts as to the handling of personal data are integrated (Newman 2008a: 142 ff.…”
