U.S. Claims Victory in Internet Fight, But Others Not So Sure
Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian
Title:U.S. Claims Victory in Internet Fight, But Others Not So Sure (ID: CSD4292)
Origin:Contributed by Organizations or Campuses (2005)
Type:Articles, Papers, and Reports
Abstract:Delegates at an international meeting in Tunisia have agreed to allow oversight of the Internet's Domain Name System (DNS) to remain with the United States. Leading up to the World Summit on the Information Society, a number of nations had put forth proposals that would have required the United States to cede DNS control to an international body. Instead, agreement was reached to leave DNS management with the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) and create an international forum to address concerns, though the forum will not have binding authority. The Internet Governance Forum is to begin meeting next year and will address issues both within the purview of ICANN, such as the addition of domains in languages other than English, and outside ICANN's authority, such as spam and cybercrime.

Your ISP as Net watchdog
Added by the EDUCAUSE Librarian
Title:Your ISP as Net watchdog (ID: CSD3915)
Author(s):Declan McCullagh (CNET News.com)
Origin:Contributed by Organizations or Campuses (2005)
Type:Articles, Papers, and Reports
Abstract:This article reports on the U.S. Department of Justice exploration of data retention rules that could permit police to obtain records of e-mail, browsing or chat-room activity months after ISPs ordinarily would have deleted the logs. Data retention could aid criminal and terrorism prosecutions, but privacy worries and questions about the practicality of assembling massive databases of customer behavior could engender stiff opposition to the proposal.
