[governance] regulating the digital space - whose laws apply,and whose do not

[Sonigitu Ekpe]

Dear All,

Greetings from the beautiful city of Calabar, Nigeria.

I feel we should be WILLING to address and answer the questions of Internet
Governance in Totality.

Great fellows this is the time to solidified our Visions for the Internet
Governance.

Remain in the BLESSING's of MOTHER NATURE.

There are some serious issues coming out here which I will enumerate:
Should the internet be governed? To what extent and how?
How is the internet defined? Is it the combination of infrastructure and
system software? Is it the virtual space or is it the people who access it?
Do we need governance structures for the infrastructure and the virtual
space? Is there need for a different governance mechanism to regulate the
actions of those who access the net and those other actions influenced by
each action.
To what extent do present legal frameworks,regulations, international laws
and treaties are apllicable to the present and future of the Internet? Do we
need to start from scratch or is there a solid foundation to build on? Which
would be more effective; applying local laws at the point of incidence or
the point of effect or should there be international legal mechanisms for
cross border breaches of internet protocol? I guess there are lots more
questions.
As a layman I believe the anwers exist but only if we are willing to.
Understand that these answers may come from a combination of the components
of these and other questions.
