<li>The rise of streaming video content has introduced significant
congestion along Internet paths, raising questions about the causes of
this congestion, as well as ways to mitigate it.</li>
<li>The Open Internet Order raises new issues about reasonable network
management practices for managing traffic demand and congestion.</li>
<li>“Zero-rating” and sponsored content present important questions and concerns about citizens’ access to connectivity and content.</li>
<li>The rapid proliferation of Internet exchange points in various parts
of the world is changing the characteristics of trans-national Internet
traffic; at the same time, the Internet remains vulnerable to traffic
redirection attacks, sometimes to regions where users do not want the
traffic to go.</li>
</ul><p style="font-size: 10pt;">
</p><p>This CITP conference will present a mix of technical and policy
perspectives on interconnection. We will explore the ongoing (and
forthcoming) technical developments in Internet interconnection and
explore how these and other developments relate to the increasingly
colorful and nuanced regulatory and policy questions in this space.</p></td></tr></tbody></table></body></html>
