ITIF has published several reports advocating greater deployment of information technologies, including "Digital Prosperity" and "Digital Quality of Life". In "Digital Prosperity", ITIF found that IT investment delivered three to five times the productivity growth of other types of investments. Commenting on the study, former Dean of Wisconsin School of Business Michael Knetter agreed with the productivity figures, though expressed caution given that some of ITIF's contributors are in the technology industry. ITIF's report "Steal These Policies: Strategies for Reducing Digital Piracy" provided the foundation for the controversial PROTECT IP and Stop Online Piracy Acts in the U.S. Congress, which the think tank acknowledged were at odds with the positions of many of its supporters.
