Internet Governance, New Work and What’s in Store for 2014

Who should control the Internet?

In the wake of the NSA surveillance scandal, the European Commission in February proposed key reforms to the way the Internet is run. These include the globalization of ICANN – the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers – the strengthening of the Internet Governance Forum, and the establishment of a Global Internet Policy Observatory as international policy watchdog. The recent annoucement by the US Administration that they intend to give up their role as the supervisor of ICANN, now heats up the debate even more.

EuroDIG 2014, hosted by eco in Berlin in June, will provide a platform to continue this debate at the European level.
