ENC: ARCEP includes the Zero Rating Map in its State of the Internet report

by Luca Belli

Hi all, I though this might be of interest as, some days ago, there was some discussion on Facebook’s zero rating plans on this list. All the best De: LB(a)lucabelli.net [mailto:LB@lucabelli.net] Enviada em: terça-feira, 26 de junho de 2018 17:26 Para: DC NN <nncoalition(a)mailman.edri.org>; global-nn(a)lists.riseup.net; governance <governance(a)lists.riseup.net> Cc: Luca Belli <luca.belli(a)fgv.br> Assunto: ARCEP includes the Zero Rating Map in its State of the Internet report Dear all, (apologies for cross-posting) As you might know, ARCEP (the French Telecoms Regulator) has just released its "State of the Internet" report. I am particularly pleased to let you know that the "Net Neutrality" part of the report features a section dedicated to the Zero Rating Map, whose beta version was launched at the IGF 2017 and that now includes information on Zero Rating and Net Neutrality regulations in 90 countries. See http://zerorating.info/ It is, to my knowledge, the first time a national regulator includes a section on an IGF outcome in an official report. Besides being concrete evidence that the IGF is not a mere talking shop, this episode demonstrates not only that the IGF can produce concrete outcomes but also that those outcomes can be of concrete use for researchers, regulators and other stakeholders alike. Furthermore, I think it is a very positive sign that the Telecoms regulator of the IGF host country shows such interest for IGF outcomes. The French version of the report is here https://www.arcep.fr/uploads/tx_gspublication/rapport-etat-internet-2018_co… The English version is here https://www.arcep.fr/uploads/tx_gspublication/report-state-internet-2018_co… The section dedicated to Zero Rating and the Minitelisation of the Internet (that I had the honour to author) is at page 69. Further readings on the subject (all in open access) are indicated in the footnotes. FYI, all IGF outcomes elaborated by the DCNN over the past years are also freely available here https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/dynamic-coalition-on-netwo… All the best Luca ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Luca Belli, PhD Senior Researcher, Center for Technology & Society, FGV Rio de Janeiro Chercheur Associé, Centre de Droit Public Comparé, Université Paris 2 Head of Internet Governance at FGV internet-governance.fgv.br @1lucabelli ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE This message, as well as any attached document, may contain information that is confidential and privileged and is intended only for the use of the addressee named above.

Planning the DC3 Session

by Luca Belli

Hi all, A further issue we should start discussing is the planning of the DC3 session. As DC3 has continuously produced outputs, we have a session slot by default but we should send a draft session proposal by 29 June. As discussed at Rightscon<http://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/index.php?q=filedepot_download/4391…>, the DC3 session could have a threefold structure featuring the following parts: 1. presentation of (at least some of) the initiatives featured in the 2018 DC3 Report (that should be the "CN Manual" mentioned in my previous email) 2. discussion with people in their early phase of CN development to understand the challenges they are facing 3. discussion with potential partners FYI, the 90 minutes time slot has been reestablished (thanks to all those who commented during the IGF stocktaking consultation requesting restauration of the 90 min slot!!). The session should be as much as possible, multistakeholder, gender balanced and geographically diverse. I propose to have up to 3 speakers in part 1; 2 for part 2; and 2 (or maybe 3) in part 3. The speakers for part 1 will be chosen amongst the contributors of the CN Manual. If anyone is already sure to submit a contribution for the CN manual, please send a message (on-list or a PM) so that I can include your name in the DRAFT session description. As regards part 2, Nico Pace offered to help liaise with people currently developing CNs and facing challenges. Nico can you suggest some names? As regards part 3, I was thinking that IFLA could be good (I am CCing Donna) and perhaps one Intergovernmental org that is dealing with CNs e.g. CITEL or African Union. Lastly, after having read what Google India is doing, providing Free WiFi at Indian train stations, I have started wondering if it could also be a potential partner to be included in the discussion https://qz.com/1300522/googles-free-wifi-at-railway-stations-is-a-way-of-li… What do you think?

Re: [DC3] DC3 Digest, Vol 32, Issue 20

by Don Means

Related to CN’s and Free or Low Cost WiFi, the various approaches in India by Goog, MSFT and FB are interesting. Google, as you point out is installing WiFi on rail line fiber. Good for many, very many travelers. FB’s free service hasn’t faired as well since it more or less followed the AOL model of walled garden. Microsoft’s depends on use of TVWS for distribution from fiber end points/interconnect points at regional gov’t offices. Then for TVWS as backhaul to extend into an unbelievable number of villages as WiFi clusters <https://gadgets.ndtv.com/internet/news/microsoft-to-bring-low-cost-broadban…> This is still pending gov’t spectrum approvals.

Compilation of Toolkits as DC3 Annual Outcome?

by Luca Belli

Hi all, There is one point that has been left unexplored form our RightsCon conversation i.e. the suggestion to elaborate a compilation of existing toolkits, instruction technologies to develop CNs. Although we are already in June, I think it would be feasible to organize a brief booklet featuring short contributions illustrating e.g. the Commotion Construction Kit, the Mazi Toolkit, the LibreRouter, etc. I think it would be very valuable to consolidate such resources into a CN guide/manual that could be the DC3 annual outcome. What do you think? If you think it could be a good idea I can share a draft “call for resources” All the best Luca [FGV Direito Rio] Luca Belli, PhD Senior Researcher Head of Internet Governance @ FGV<http://internet-governance.fgv.br/> luca.belli(a)fgv.br +55 21 3799 5763 @1lucabelli<https://twitter.com/1lucabelli> [http://www.fgv.br/mailing/Direito_Rio/assinatura_email/Ondas.png] On Fri, 18 May 2018 at 05:18, Luca Belli <luca.belli(a)fgv.br<mailto:luca.belli@fgv.br>> wrote: Dear all, (apologies for typos, I am writing fom a device with no corrector) Yesterday, we had a very interesting and fruitful meeting at rightscon. Below a brief recap of the ideas that emerged from the discussion. General considerations: First, it would be interesting to dedicate the 2018 DC3 outcome to a compilation of exsiting toolkits (e.g. Mazi tooltik), instructions (e.g. Commotion), technologies (Libre Router), etc. that allow people to concretely build community networks, rather than elaborating another book. Second, it would be good to dedicate part of the DC3 session to "let the unconnected speak for themselves" i.e. bringing into the debate people that are currently attempting to build CNs, to lat them share the difficulties they are facing and discuss with DC3 members how to solve them. Nico Pace and Leandro pointed out that there are a lot of commmunities that are attempting to build CNs that would be willing to share their experience. Third, it would be very interesting to dedicate part of the session to discussing partnerships with stakeholders with whom we can establish unexplored cooperation. IFLA (Donna was present at the meeting) was an obvious exemple but many others can be added to the list (e.g. community radio, etc). Lastly, (this point partly overlap with the previous one) it would be very interesting to bring into the discussion and and establish cooperation with developers of technologies that can be compelentary to the development of CN e.g. blockchain projetc (e.g. delife.io<http://delife.io> which was presented by Jan who participated to the meeting), IoT solutions developers, etc. Important question: Which format could be the best suited for a compilation of toolkits, etc? A specific website? A webpage of the DC3 site? Something else? Specific considerations: It would be very challenging to discuss all the points mentioned above during the DC3 session (even if the 90 minutes slot has been reinstored, after many participants complained about last year 60 min slot). Therefore it would be advisable to put forward a workshop proposal, besides the DC3 session. The session DC3 could have a structure along these lines - presentation of (at least some of) the initiatives featured in the compilation/catalogue of toolkits (40 min) - discussion with people in their early phase of CN development to undertand the challeges they are facing (30 min) - discussion with potential partners (20 min) The discussion/presentation of technologies and initiatives that can compelement CN development is so broad that could be the object of a specific session. Stavroula and Harris, from Mazi, kindly volunteered to take the lead to develop the workshop proposal (deadline 27 May) for a collaborative workshop where such initiatives/technologies can be presented. Info on how to develop a workshop propsal can be found here https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/igf-2018-call-for-workshop… (pay particular attention to "workshop evaluations") Here is the online form to submit the proposal https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/igf-2018-workshop-proposal… Here the list of the workshop approved last year to have some exemples http://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/igf-2017-workshops Please feel free to share comments and add any info I may have forgotten or correct anything I may have misreported All the best Luca -- Harris Niavis University of Thessaly (UTH) Centre for Research & Technology Hellas (CERTH) t: +30 2421 306070 s: niavisharris e: harniavis(a)gmail.com<mailto:harniavis@gmail.com>
