[governance] Have there been any statements re: PRISM from the "technical community"

[Norbert Bollow]

I'd like to try to rephrase the question:

Have there been public comments about PRISM from the community of
highly respected insiders of the core technical institutions of
the Internet such as ICANN, the RIRs, IAB, and/or from ISOC staff?

Greetings,
Norbert


** Acronyms
ICANN=Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers
