Dear Gregory,
The Snowden leaks seem above all to provide you an argument against all
governments and public bodies.
So, what could be your conclusion? To forget every democratic
representation and leave citizens alone facing the great global companies?
I doubt it could be your wish, is it?
@+, cheers, Dominique

> The Snowden leaks provided a convenient soapbox for the EU and others to climb on and demand this transition. Perhaps the EU member states should throw open their surveillance activities for public scrutiny, so that we could compare and contrast the levels and types of mass surveillance actually going on. Then we could make more reasoned judgments about "issues of trust."

> Since the EU isn't really a "government," and presumably does not itself take on significant surveillance activities, it has "plausible deniability" when it comes to such things. This allows the EU to "throw the first stone," while not really being "without sin."

> The Brazilian government lumped those two topics together for NetMundial, with ample encouragement from 1Net and ICANN. The I* brought those two issues together in the Montevideo Declaration. The European Commission in a recent press release noted:

> "Recent revelations of large-scale surveillance have called into question the stewardship of the US when it comes to Internet Governance.
> So given the US-centric model of Internet Governance currently in place, it is necessary to broker a smooth transition to a more global model while at the same time protecting the underlying values of open multi-stakeholder governance of the Internet."

>> I disagree as well. In this discussion it is very important to dissociate the USG/NTIA by role in the performance of IANA function by ICANN and the issue related to mass surveillance. The two are not technically linked and should be addressed separately.
