.XXX and Conservative Groups by Patrick Vande Walle
By now, you should have read elsewhere that the ICANN
board has rejected the ICM application to create a
.XXX TLD. It still comes as a surprise to some.
Frankly, this was the prognosis I made to Stuart
Lawley two years ago, for the very reasons mentioned
by the European Commission. I mentioned in a previous
blog entry that 6000 complaints from US citizens would
have more weight on the conservative US administration
than any other consideration. Had the ICANN board
approved .XXX, I bet that it would have been blocked
by the DoC at a later stage, ie in the
IANA-DoC-Verisign root zone update process.

pornographic pages, 68 million daily search engine
requests, 2.5 billion daily pornographic emails, and
1.5 billion peer to peer pornographic downloads
monthly?

Afrikas Internet-Community beginnt sich zu
emanzipieren
Mit einer Serie von Konferenzen und dem Aufbau neuer
Netzwerke versucht die afrikanische

ICANN-Direktor, bereits im Jahr 2000 gegründete
African Network Operators Group (AFNOG) mehr und mehr
zum Gravitationszentrum der bislang eher lose
zusammenarbeitenden Internetgrüppchen in Afrika.

políticas procedentes del gobierno de los Estados

según revela The Register.
