[governance] [bestbits] Remarks at UNESCO Closing Ceremony of "Connecting the Dots Conference"

Thu Mar 5 03:54:35 EST 2015

Love your "some civil society persons". 
Love you 'some issues" as well.
Perhaps it is just "some you".
I am sure everyone will enjoy your  manière de faire

JNC, contrary to the people who are funded by big US money, are accepting no money from either the US government or corps or status-quo institutions such as ICANN or any other foreign governments or corporations. It would be so interesting to disclose the funding powers behind the multistakholderist faction: of course, if you wish us to be of some help with this, we are ready to provide you with a detailed list of the lucky funded folks in our CS world. Shall we go into that? Ready?

US money, British money, Swedish money ... let's follow the money for once. We will all learn a lot and some will have to stop pretending being true CS.

Who pays for the musicians...

This given that Richard Hill on behalf of the coalition has just disrupted the meeting with a formal objection to the document due to its omission to qualify references to multi-stakeholderism with “democratic” (which he incorrectly stated was not objected to during the last drafting session), and its omission to include a reference to the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights.  Other than his objection, the document was adopted by the meeting by consensus.
