We really hope the Macro Civil can pass with its net neutrality
provisions intact.... If it does, net neutrality (NN) advocacy may
be able to get a new leash of life, this time centred in
developing countries who would be the biggest losers of an
non-neutral Internet. This after the NN movement was killed in the
US by the grand Google-Verizon pact (which, in any case both
parties have turned their back on since, and was perhaps only
meant to forestall possible stronger action by FCC, which at that
times seemed making some serious noises) and later by the apparent
volte face by EC politicians in the EU, even when some EU
countries have working NN legislations.<br>
<br>
It is great that Brazil has once again articulated net neutrality
as a key global IG priority. The first time it did was in 2010, at
part of the joint IBSA statement on enhanced cooperation, and
again recently as part of their response to enhanced cooperation
questionnaire.<br>
<br>
In fact all the five principles enunciated by Dilma's statement
are excellent, and should form the core of global Internet
governance. I reproduce them below.<br>
</font><br>
1 - Freedom of expression, privacy of
the individual and respect for human rights.
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">2 - Open, multilateral and democratic
governance, carried out with transparency by stimulating
collective creativity and the
participation of society, Governments and the private sector.
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">3 - Universality that ensures the
social and human development and the construction of inclusive and
non-discriminatory
societies.
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">4 - Cultural diversity, without the
imposition of beliefs, customs and values.
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">5 - Neutrality of the network, guided
only by technical and ethical criteria, rendering it inadmissible
to restrict it for
political, commercial, religious or any other purposes. </p>

<pre wrap="">Yes, I was one of the ones who talked to her just before she travelled
to the Evil Empire. This is the meaning.
The best part was her firm and clear defense of net neutrality (not even
aunt Neelie dares so much). A tremendous cold shower on the
transnational telco cartel in Brazil, and a renewed hope Marco Civil
could be approved as we dream it should.

<pre wrap="">Dear Raphael,
You are right.
I was asking myself if she didn't use "Multilateral" by error. Did she want to talk "Multistakeholder".
If I consider this paragraph for instance :
"2 - Open, multilateral and democratic governance, carried out with transparency by stimulating
collective creativity and the participation of society, Governments and the private sector."
If the word "Society"is meant to mean "Civil Society", then I suppose she wanted to mean "Multistakeholder"
