[Pierre Lotis NANKEP]

The subject in question goes beyond the consideration of the simple implementation of Internet exchange points (IXP).

Few weeks ago on this mailing list and on the same subject, some demanded the closing of the debate, others had said it was a nonsense. And now they want to reduce or deflect the debate to the question of Internet exchange point.

An IXP is not sufficient to resolve the issues addressed by Angela Merkel (Germany) and Rousseff (Brasil)...

Well, I speak German, and I understand Mrs Merkel to be concerned with national or even European (Schengen, rather) traffic to no longer being routed via the US and/or the UK, for that matter. 

I seem to understand her not having an issue with traffic to foreign destinations being routed through wherever the infrastructure is fastest, cheapest, and in particular not having issues with traffic to the US being routed through the US, or UK traffic through the UK, as she is not (so much) concerned with the internal affairs of these countries and the German constitution with its strong protection of privacy (even informational privacy) doesn't apply in these cases. 

I haven't read the following, but I am absolutely certain that she has no issues with traffic from the US, UK or foreign countries to the US, UK or foreign countries being routed through European infrastructure, in particular if German Intelligence service can deeply inspect the traffic.

So, what we are talking here is nothing but Internet Exchanges. Even if it is clear from the language she uses that she doesn't understand the finer points. 

Though she clearly understands that there are voters who don't want their traffic to be read.

Even former MPs and (subsequently former) Interior Ministers..

What Merkel is talking about is very similar to Rousseff's a year ago.

>>>What is this deep seated desire to close dialogues? Where does it come from? It defies the very nature of Africans - our cultural fundamentals to dialogue until a resolution is reached, until out hearts' content. It violates the freedom of speech that we all subscribe to. Totally against our being. A dialogue, any dialogue should continue until we are satisfied. There are no gate keepers in traditional African dialogue settings. If you wish not to participate, just play the lurker. That is some form of expression too.
