Internet Governance: The Battle Lines are Drawn
Who should run the Internet? A key battle in this
drawn-out war for control of the Internet commenced in
Geneva today (23 November) with a UN team kicked off
the first of several sessions dealing with Internet
governance. Meanwhile, in Marrakech, a taste of the
issues was raised at a conference on the role of the
media in the information society.

THE CLASSIFICATION OF INTERNET GOVERNANCE by Jovan
Kurbalija, Director of DiploFoundation (PDF)
This paper summarises the current phase of a research
project on the classification of Internet governance.
The current text is open for hypertext discussion on
Diplo’s hypertext server. Hypertext-based discussion,
used in both teaching and research activities, is one
of Diplo’s main methodological tools.

Can the Free Internet Survive?
Advertising banners commonly offer "something special"
to customers, usually in the form of lower prices or
better service. But over the weekend, some popular Web
sites delivered something completely unexpected with
their advertising banners: a piece of malware.

UN-Aufsicht bei globaler Netzverwaltung
Die UN Arbeitsgruppe Internet Governance (WGIG) sollte
ein dauerhaftes internationales Forum zum Thema
Netzregulierung einrichten. Im "Permanent Internet
Forum" sollen Regierungen, Unternehmen und
Nichtregierungsorganisationen das Rootserver-System
ebenso diskutieren können wie Markenrechts- und
Urheberrechtsfragen, VoIP-Regulierung oder Spam.
Diesen Vorschlag machte beim siebten Treffen der UN
ICT Task Force, das am Wochenende in Berlin zu Ende
ging, deren Vizepräsident Talal Abu-Ghazaleh.

Internet Filtering in Saudi Arabia in 2004: A country
study by the OpenNet Initiative
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia controls the information
its citizens can readily access on the World Wide Web
through a sophisticated filtering system that draws
upon commercial software from the United States
(Secure Computing's SmartFilter) for technical
implementation and site blocking suggestions, expert
local staff for operations and additional site
identification, and Saudi citizen input to suggest
over- or under-blocking according to stated filtering
criteria. The OpenNet Initiative (ONI) has tested
filtering in Saudi Arabia over a three-year period. We
found that the Kingdom's filtering focuses on a few
types of content: pornography (98% of these sites
tested blocked in our research), drugs (86%), gambling
(93%), religious conversion, and sites with tools to
circumvent filters (41%). In contrast, Saudi Arabia
shows less interest in sites on gay and lesbian issues
(11%), politics (3%), Israel (2%), religion (less than
1%), and alcohol (only 1 site). Unlike filtering in
states such as China, the policies, procedures, and
philosophy for Saudi Arabia's filtering system are
relatively transparent and documented on the Web site
of its Internet Services Unit (ISU). Users who try to
access forbidden sites see a Web page informing them
that the site is prohibited. Despite this openness
about filtering, the system inevitably errs, resulting
in overblocking of unrelated content.

In China, new threats seen to free speech
Citing concerns over the rising prevalence of
pornography, the Chinese government recently launched
a nationwide crackdown against Internet smut sites and
pornography peddlers using new media outlets such as
cellphone text messaging.

Free whitepaper: Demystifying Internet Content
Filtering (reg req'd)
Today's organisations rely increasingly on the
Internet for access to information and resources. The
opportunity to connect to Web sites that contain
information and images that are objectionable or even
illegal can leave businesses vulnerable to legal
liabilities and unwanted security risks. Unrestricted
Web access and the use of instant messaging (IM) and
peer-to-peer (P2P) applications compete for employees'
time and can result in tremendous losses in
productivity and exposures to unwanted worms, trojans
and viruses.

au: Child Porn Crackdown Affects Legit Porn Down Under
The national police campaign against child pornography
has been blamed for a fall in visits to legal Internet
erotica sites. According to a story in The Australian
newspaper November 19, a recent spate of child porn
convictions in  that country have inadvertently
effected its Adult industry, with many users avoiding
sites for fear they will be accidentally linked to
child porn through surfing.

2005: starting point for a new EU strategy (news
release)
The European Commission’s view of the challenges that
a European Information Society strategy up to 2010
needs to address are set out in a Commission
communication adopted today. This communication
highlights the need to step up research and investment
in information and communication technologies (ICT),
and to promote their take-up throughout the economy.
ICT should be more closely tailored to citizens’ needs
and expectations, to enable them to participate more
readily in socially fulfilling and culturally creative
virtual communities. The challenges include electronic
inclusion and citizenship, content and services,
public services, skills and work, ICT as a key
industry sector, interoperability of ICT networks and
applications, trust and dependability and ICT for
business processes. This communication is the starting
point of a reflection process that will lead to the
adoption of a new strategy during 2005.

CAN THE INTERNET SURVIVE? by Roger Darlington, Chair,
Internet Watch Foundation
This was the title of a seminar that I attended
recently. The event was held at the London Business
School and organised by the Oxford Internet Institute.
The main speaker was Professor David Farber, of the
Carnegie Mellon University in the United States. So -
in spite of the seemingly alarmist title - the
discussion was a serious affair. At one level, the
answer to the question is obvious: 'The Internet has
to survive because it is now so critical to so many
governments, companies, organisations and
individuals'. At another level, though, the answer is
very different: 'The Internet is now being used for so
many more purposes by so many more people than for
which it was designed that it cannot continue to exist
in its present form for much longer'.

The Explosion of Broadband in France
France is in the midst of a broadband explosion during
the last 12 months with the French Telecommunication
Regulatory Authority (ART) playing a significant role
in opening market access to new players. In a recent
press briefing on the state of broadband access in
France, (ART) explains that the number of broadband
subscribers has doubled in one year. Intense
competition has also lead to the proposal of new
technologies and services by players like Free, who
currently offer a bundled triple play of free phone
calls, 100 channels of digital TV and broadband access
for less than 30 Euros a month (approximately US $39).
Both Free and France Telecom recently announced that
they plan large scale roll outs of ADSL 2+ with
complete coverage across France planned by the end of
2005. Additional information (in French) is available.
