Hi,
Many of us argue that Human Rights is an essential component of any
definition of Public Interest. How can something be in the Public Interest
if it contravenes human rights, especially those that are binding upon
nations and obligatory for businesses, especially those which are defined as
adhering to all applicable international law.
However, we have seen that in arriving at expression of public interest, it
is often necessary to balance those human rights, all of which stand equal
as human rights, but that have different emphasis in different national
regimes, even among those who justifiably can claim an adherence to human
rights.
As a organization, ICANN needs to adhere to human rights mandates and needs
to do so in the public interest. It is my understanding that our bottom-up
processes are the means by which we determine our understanding of the
public interest. But in doing so, we must always be sure we do not infringe
upon human rights.
Just as there are many ways to achieve stability, security and resilience,
and we determine that through our bottom-up processes, as modulated through
the advice of our experts on security and stability in the SSAC and RSSAC,
there are many ways to serve the public interest that need to be determined
through adherence to bylaws manadated bottom-up processes and modulated
through expert advice on human rights.
So perhaps we should be considering "public interest consistent with human
rights."

Dear All,
We should avoid to be engaged doing
something that we know would no tangible
results.
I do not be infavour of replacing public interest
With anything such as human rights and
freedom Of expression, acknowledging
That the latter two issues are very important
But are quite difficult to limit public interests to
These two issues
Pls be prudent

I'm a bit confused Tijani.
First, you said you didn't remember the suggestion and now you state the
suggestion had no support. As I wasn't able to be in Frankfurt I would
appreciate clarification of the status of this worthy idea. I'm personally
not a big fan of the generic term "public interest", finding that in
practice "public interest" usually morphs into "personal interest": that is,
"the public it is I". I realise that creation of a consensus definition of
the public interest is called for in the draft 5 year OP but I do find
Robin's idea to be worthy of discussion by the wider WG and thank staff for
including it in the summary document.
Best,
Ed

Yes you did in Frankfurt, and there was no support to your suggestion.
The public interest or the benefit of the public, not just in the
interests of a particular set of stakeholders had a large support as part
of the CCWG Accountability Problem definition document (purposes of
ICANNs accountability, d.)

Dear Adam,
I may have missed some of the mails exchanged but I dont remember that it
was suggested that the public interest be replaced by human rights and
internet freedom.
