Subject: RE: An additional issue for AOB at our next meeting

Dear Flip,

Thanks for the proposal. We will have this as an AOB item to give you the opportunity to elaborate even as an individual, for the benefit of those who would not have consulted their mailbox.

Given the importance of those events, the expectation would only be at this stage to bring councilors attention to this question of whether any policy related initiative is warranted with this context, not for them to “give an answer” this afternoon. So probably not much of a substantive discussion to be had, but as you point out, this will enable councilors to consult with the SG/Cs and come back to Council as they see fit.

Regards,
Philippe

Subject: [council] An additional issue for AOB at our next meeting

Dear All:

I propose that we put the following issue as an AOB on the agenda of our next meeting.

The incident that generated the letter from the Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Digital Transformation of Ukraine, and the response by G. Marby, raises questions on ICANN’s role at the occasion of certain Internet activities in conflict situations. There is more to this than the question of restricting access to the Internet, the need to act neutral and within ICANN’s core mission.  The questions cover a broad scope of legal and ethical considerations that may need to be fully explored.  Above all, the security and stability of the Internet and the systems reliant upon it are at risk.

The question is: how does ICANN ensure the openness (including accessibility) of the Internet in conflict situations and how does ICANN manage the impact on the security and stability of the Internet?

In my humble opinion, this calls for a thorough impact analysis and policies that effectively map, identify and combat forms of abuse as warranted by overarching global security concerns. Ultimately, this approach may set more realistic expectations in the Community.

I have not been able to discuss this at the IPC and, hence, the IPC has not been able to express a position on this subject, yet.

But I think the discussion is timely.

I propose that the GNSO councilors go back to their SGCs and inform the GNSO council if they wish to ask council to consider the impact analysis that I am referring to above.

Best regards,

Flip
