[governance] [bestbits] UN Working Group considering mechanisms for global governance of Internet fails

[Suresh Ramasubramanian]

A choice collection of autocrats though.  If putting them in charge means more participation for anybody other than the individual governments and their cronies please color me surprised.

S​ince Suresh asked ​"it’d be interesting if the Chinese have fit internet governance issues into that effort instead of a string of roads, ports etc

​"​

​

 

​Actually, they have 
Putin, Xi, Modi, Temer, Zuma: Our 3,000,000,000 People Think the U.S. Shouldn’t Run the Internet (Xiamen Statement) First Look http://bit.ly/BRICsIG
I don't like the authoritarian nature of the Chinese government, but I think we're fooling ourselves if we try to run the Internet without them.
