[AfrICANN-discuss] ITU

[Ben Fuller]

OK.  How about this as something original. You can find the link to the
Slashdot article below.

*"One of the concerns is that decisions taken there may make the Internet
less a medium that can be used to enhance personal freedom than a tool for
state surveillance and oppression. The new Y.2770
standard<http://www.itu.int/ITU-T/workprog/wp_item.aspx?isn=7082> is
entitled 'Requirements for deep packet inspection in Next Generation
Networks', and seeks to define an international standard for deep packet
inspection (DPI). As the Center for Democracy & Technology points out, it
is thoroughgoing in its desire to specify technologies that can be used to
spy on people<https://www.cdt.org/blogs/cdt/2811adoption-traffic-sniffing-standard-fans-wcit-flames>.
One of the big issues surrounding
WCIT<http://www.itu.int/en/wcit-12/Pages/default.aspx> and
the ITU has been the lack of transparency — or even understanding what real
transparency might be. So it will comes as no surprise that the new DPI
standard was negotiated behind closed
doors<http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20121203/07493221209/itu-approves-deep-packet-inspection-standard-behind-closed-doors-ignores-huge-privacy-implications.shtml>,
with no drafts being made available."*

ITU Approves Deep Packet
Inspection<http://yro.slashdot.org/story/12/12/05/0115214/itu-approves-deep-packet-inspection>

Perhaps we get an ITU response from the representative?
