[governance] Internet Giants form new Lobbying Group - Internet Association

[Fouad Bajwa]

Some of you might already know but if not then here is the US Congressional
Internet Lobbying front of the private sector...Google, Facebook, Amazon
and eBay jointly formulated "Internet Association" beyond the likes of ISOC
or any other group:

About The Internet Association
Source: http://internetassociation.org
The Internet Association is the unified voice of the Internet economy,
representing the interests of America's leading Internet companies and
their global community of users. The Internet Association is dedicated to
advancing public policy solutions to strengthen and protect an open,
innovative and free Internet.

Here is a more detailed article on the subject:

I think this sends out a message to CS too to get more organized and
coordinated.
