A Fond Farewell from Leslie Daigle – Where We’ve Been, Where We’re Going https://www.internetsociety.org/blog/2014/05/a-fond-farewell-from-leslie-daigle-where-weve-been-where-were-going/ Tue, 13 May 2014 00:00:00 +0000 http://www.internetsociety.org/uncategorized/2014/05/a-fond-farewell-from-leslie-daigle-where-weve-been-where-were-going/

I recently announced my departure from the Internet Society, and now that I’m winding down my last week here it seems like an excellent time to look back on where we started nearly seven years ago, where we are today, and where the Internet and ISOC can and should go from here. In early October […]

Permissionless Innovation — Openness, not Anarchy https://www.internetsociety.org/blog/2014/04/permissionless-innovation-openness-not-anarchy/ Tue, 22 Apr 2014 00:00:00 +0000 http://www.internetsociety.org/uncategorized/2014/04/permissionless-innovation-openness-not-anarchy/

A sign of success of the Internet is the degree to which we take it for granted. Do you trawl Lifehacker and TechCrunch to find the next need-to-have social media tool or cloud service support for your professional or personal pastimes? You’re confident that there will be a next thing, even if you don’t quite […]

Turkish ISPs Hijacking Traffic: This is How an Internet Breaks https://www.internetsociety.org/blog/2014/04/turkish-isps-hijacking-traffic-this-is-how-an-internet-breaks/ Tue, 01 Apr 2014 00:00:00 +0000 http://www.internetsociety.org/uncategorized/2014/04/turkish-isps-hijacking-traffic-this-is-how-an-internet-breaks/

While we may be tired of hearing about blocked Internet access, the most recent move in Turkey should make us sit up and take notice again, as it represents an attack not just on the DNS infrastructure, but on the global Internet routing system itself. I would argue that people in Turkey haven’t had real […]

TWO-FOUR-SIX-EIGHT – Who Do We Appreciate? IANA! https://www.internetsociety.org/blog/2014/03/two-four-six-eight-who-do-we-appreciate-iana/ Fri, 21 Mar 2014 00:00:00 +0000 http://www.internetsociety.org/uncategorized/2014/03/two-four-six-eight-who-do-we-appreciate-iana/

On Friday, 14 March 2014, the U.S. Department of Commerce National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) announced its intention to transition the IANA functions to the global multistakeholder community. As expected, the announcement has sent adrenaline coursing through the veins of Internet governance experts and government policy people the world over. I’d argue, however, that […]

Celebrating 25 Years of the World Wide Web – What’s Next for the Internet? https://www.internetsociety.org/blog/2014/03/celebrating-25-years-of-the-world-wide-web-whats-next-for-the-internet/ Wed, 12 Mar 2014 00:00:00 +0000 http://www.internetsociety.org/uncategorized/2014/03/celebrating-25-years-of-the-world-wide-web-whats-next-for-the-internet/

Twenty-five years ago, when the World Wide Web was on the drafting board, I had a tough time trying to explain to friends and relatives what the Internet was and why I was working with it. “Global network” meant nothing to the average citizen. Now, at least, most people understand that the Internet is the […]

Prediction: IPv6 Adoption Hits Double Digits in 2014 https://www.internetsociety.org/blog/2014/01/prediction-ipv6-adoption-hits-double-digits-in-2014/ Tue, 21 Jan 2014 00:00:00 +0000 http://www.internetsociety.org/uncategorized/2014/01/prediction-ipv6-adoption-hits-double-digits-in-2014/

Last week, I had the opportunity to provide some predictions for 2014 to the Telecom Council of Silicon Valley. I have mixed feelings about predicting the future when it comes to the Internet – the Internet has been such a change-maker that I’ve been known to say, “a predictable Internet is a dead Internet.” That […]

Earlier this month, the leaders of organizations responsible for the management and coordination of […]

As governments of other countries realize how much of their citizens’ traffic flows through the US, whether or not it is destined for any […]
