Re: [DC3] RES: Elaboration of a Declaration of Principles and Good Practices on Community Connectivity

It helps to have written songs for the Grateful Dead ... If we do declarations I strongly urge separating a declaration about connectivity as infrastructure from the more aspirational goals of "access". This separation has been the key to the success of the Internet by decoupling the technology from the applications. My focus is on the enabling/empowering infrastructure. The is a shift to paying for the common infrastructure as a community. For profit is fine. The problem is that today's profit is made by having a third party taxing speech. By paying for infrastructure as a community we align the incentives. We need to be wary about too much emphasis on examples of volunteers to avoid false dichotomies of public/private and us/them. Perhaps something that JPB can endorse. -----Original Message----- From: dc3-bounces(a)listas.altermundi.net [mailto:dc3-bounces@listas.altermundi.net] On Behalf Of Luca Belli Sent: Wednesday, September 7, 2016 17:38 To: Dynamic Coalition on Community Connectivity <dc3(a)listas.altermundi.net> Subject: [DC3] RES: Elaboration of a Declaration of Principles and Good Practices on Community Connectivity I wholeheartedly agree with C.A.
