[governance] E-conference Tuesday: Is There A Third Way For The Internet: Neither The US Nor The UN But Independence? #governance

[Joly MacFie]

As all are likely aware Internet Governance is going through somewhat of an
existential crisis, following the WCIT in Dubai last year, compounded by
circumstances that are now universally referred to as "recent events",
leading up to the Montevideo
statement<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montevideo_Statement_on_the_Future_of_Internet_Cooperation>,
and the announcement of a summit to be held in Brazil next year. Much
discussion has taken place over the last two weeks at the IGF in Bali, and
the IETF in Vancouver, much of it dedicated to finding workable solutions
that will maintain the independence and integrity of the global open
Internet. This e-conference promises to markedly further that discussion.
Note that it will be relayed on the ISOC Chapters livestream channel.
