AW: [governance] 20th century arrives in Geneva

[Peter H. Hellmonds]

What about using a VPN service? I don't think that is restricted, as
otherwise no one of the business people would be able to visit their
corporate network safely. And there are private VPN providers accessible for
the non-corporate users as well, so you should be able to make your pick.

Some good news today for people who will be visiting Geneva in May-June for
IGF, CSTD, etc.

Good news indeed, though still limited.

Unless it was fixed very recently, the UN Geneva internet is "filtered". 

Access is barred when a user selects a DNS server of his choice, as
routinely offered on any access device. UN internet WIFI access for visitors
is only possible if the user consents to the UN DNS, which is apparently
restricted to the ICANN root.

It would be fair to inform users of this filtering, and explain why.
