Re: [At-Large] News on the .health TLD allocation

Hi everyone, Just thought I'd jump in on this. While I don't want to deign to speak for .HEALTH (or .PHARMACY), since we'll be involved in the monitoring, thought it might be helpful to explain the envisioned approach, and also how LegitScript's monitoring program works. Basically, the general philosophy is that anything that's currently okay in the offline world is going to be permitted online as well. It's not intended to be more or less restrictive, but just to reflect what's already required as per existing healthcare-related regulations. Obviously, it depends on the product in question: prescription drugs tend to have stricter requirements than supplements, for example, in most countries. What's restricted or permitted also varies by country or local jurisdiction. One important point is that it's not US-centric, as one poster seemed to think could be the case. If the website is offering products to Japan, for example, then they have to adhere to whatever Japanese laws and regulations apply to the sale of those products. If they are selling to resident of India, then they have to follow those laws and regulations. But unless they are shipping drugs or other regulated products to the US, they wouldn't be bound by US laws and regulations. (If a healthcare product merchant is legal in three jurisdictions but shipping to five jurisdictions, then there is a really easy answer: stop shipping to the two jurisdictions where you aren't operating legally.) That's no different than what's required in the offline world as well, e.g., for a brick-and-mortar pharmacy. On our end, we already monitor healthcare merchants in multiple jurisdictions around the world (China, Korea, Japan, Ireland, France, Germany, Indonesia, Thailand, Canada...the list goes on), applying the laws and regulations that are appropriate to each circumstance, so we see it as pretty straightforward. Obviously, it would be not only impractical, but also unfair, to require a healthcare merchant in Sweden legally selling to Scandinavian jurisdictions to comply with US laws and regulations (in fact, it would be impossible). Unfortunately, the online healthcare space is one that does benefit from some monitoring -- there have been multiple deaths and adverse events from fake drugs, tainted supplements, that sort of thing. So, both of those TLDs are intended to be a safe space where Internet users can know that the seller is operating in accordance with the laws and regulations that they are supposed to, just by looking at the TLD. That seems to us to be a good thing. But, the Internet is a global space, and it's definitely not US-centric or based on any one countries' laws and regulations -- rather, it's jurisdictionally flexible based on the circumstance in question. Hope that helps to clarify.

Dear Rosa, thank you very much for this follow-up. Yes indeed, we have seen this allocation. I note that the successful applicant will enforce restrictions, or at least police applications, in order to reduce the likelyhood of fake pharmacies using the zone. It would be interesting to see performance metrics of such enforcement a few years down the line.

Beyond NETmundial e-book released
by William Drake Aug. 31, 2014

Aug. 31, 2014

Hello Apologies in advance if you receive this notice from more than one list, but in case anyone is coming to the IGF and wants some reading for the plane, I thought I would share the below. On Day 0, Monday 1 September, a group of partners have organized an event called, NETmundial: Looking Back, Learning Lessons and Mapping the Road Ahead. http://sched.co/1r7K8s3 It will run from 9:00 - 18:30 in Workshop Room 02 (Rumeli Ground Floor / Room B2), and the IGF Secretariat informed me yesterday that remote participation will be available via the IGF website, albeit in “test mode.” As part of this event, from 14:30-16:00 there will be an e-“book” launch of a project I coordinated. Authors who will be speaking will include myself and Jeremy Malcolm (EFF), Markus Kummer (Internet Society), Anriette Esterhuysen (APC), Carlos Affonso Pereira de Souza (ITS), Emma Llansó and Matt Shears (CDT), Wolfgang Kleinwächter (U. Aarhus), and perhaps one or two others. In advance of the launch discussion, the book has been released today. Please see the announcement below. We hope you find the material useful. Best, Bill Beyond NETmundial: The Roadmap for Institutional Improvements to the Global Internet Governance Ecosystem explores options for the implementation of a key section of the “NETmundial Multistakeholder Statement” that was adopted at the Global Meeting on the Future of Internet Governance (NETmundial) held on April 23rd and 24th 2014 in São Paulo, Brazil. The Roadmap section of the statement concisely sets out a series of proposed enhancements to existing mechanisms for global internet governance, as well as suggestions of possible new initiatives that the global community may wish to consider. The sixteen chapters by leading practitioners and scholars are grouped into six sections: The NETmundial Meeting; Strengthening the Internet Governance Forum; Filling the Gaps; Improving ICANN; Broader Analytical Perspectives; and Moving Forward. The book was produced as a part of the Internet Policy Observatory, a program at the Center for Global Communication Studies (http://www.global.asc.upenn.edu/) the Annenberg School for Communication at the University of Pennsylvania. It was edited by William J. Drake of the University of Zurich and Monroe Price of the Annenberg School for Communication. They were assisted by Laura Schwartz-Henderson, Briar Smith, and Alexandra Esenler. You can view the publication here: http://www.global.asc.upenn.edu/app/uploads/2014/08/BeyondNETmundial_FINAL.… *********************************************** William J.

IGF 2014 and UN SIDS Conference
by Salanieta T. Tamanikaiwaimaro Aug. 28, 2014

Aug. 28, 2014

Dear All, I trust that you are all excited as I am about this year's IGF. There are three pressing things requiring my attendance all within the span of the same time - the IGF and the South East Asia Computer Confederation Executive meeting in Sri Lanka. As it takes quite some time to travel from the South seas to the North, my current responsibilities demand my maximizing efficiency, although I know the IGF is going to be pretty awesome. I will be streaming in from the Pacific. I will say this though, we have got some developmental initiatives in the Pacific lined up that is going to be pretty dynamic in terms of advancing development and I am excited about the future of the Internet in the Pacific. Whilst I cannot be there at the IGF in person this time, I will be participating remotely. For those of you who have friends who will be attending the UN SIDS conference, kindly invite them to attend the ICT for Sustainable Development Side event. We (University of the South Pacific) are organising a Side Event at the this year's* United Nations Small Islands Developing States* Conference called: ICT for Sustainable Development Date: *4th September 2014* Time: *11:00am - 12:30pm* Venue: CR1 Faleata Sports Complex Apia, Samoa For more information, kindly contact USP's ICT Outreach Coordinator - Mr Sakaio Manoa on manoa_s(a)usp.ac.fj With every best wish, Salanieta Tamanikaiwaimaro

I've said it before but the AfPIF is likely the single best event the the Internet Society presents. Interconnection is the lifeblood of the Internet. It's an organic and dynamic ad hoc process that is little understood, one might say esoteric. The AfPIF serves to illustrate and educate on it's arcane secrets. joly posted: "The 5th Africa Peering and Interconnection Forum (AfPIF) takes place from 26-28 August, 2014 in Dakar, Senegal.

Music Night in Los Angeles
by Roberto Gaetano Aug. 22, 2014

Aug. 22, 2014

Folks, I take the opportunity in this slow mid-August weekend, when the mailing list is almost idle, to talk about a more frivolous subject: music night in LA. Following the good feedback we had for the music session at the Summit in London, some of us were thinking of having a similar event as part of the music night in LA. However, it would be nice to extend participation to any musician, and try to get a bit more organized - for instance, decide the tunes at least 10 minutes before the show J Personally, I would like to make this a multi-stakeholder event - the band will be called the GEMS (Global Equal Multi-Stakeholders) and I hope to have this call for EoI (Expression of Interest) by musicians in most stakeholders list. I am starting from ALAC, also with the request to circulate this in the regional lists (I have only access to EURALO, in copy). If any musician wants to volunteer, please let me know by email at your earliest convenience. Cheers, Roberto

ICANN Report: Overview and History of the IANA Functions
by Joly MacFie Aug. 17, 2014

Aug. 17, 2014

As discussion continues on the US NTIA prposal to transfer stewardship of the IANA functions to the multistakeholder community continues, there is still a fair degree of ignorance as to just what the functions are, and their history. This report serves as a valuable primer. joly posted: "ICANN's Security and Stability Advisory Committee (SSAC) has issued a report "Overview and History of the IANA Functions". The report describes the activities included in the IANA Functions contract as well as the functions performed under the IETF MoU in" ICANN's Security and Stability Advisory Committee <https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/ssac-2012-02-25-en> (SSAC) has issued a report "*Overview and History of the IANA Functions* <https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/sac-067-en.pdf>". The report describes the activities included in the IANA Functions contract as well as the functions performed under the IETF MoU in order to establish a baseline of understanding for those interested in how the upper-most level of the Internet’s system of unique identifiers is managed. It focuses primarily on the IANA Functions contract, but is intended to describe all of the activities related to the IANA Functions as they are currently performed, including those that lie outside of the IANA Functions contract.

Roberto Great to hear that you'll be travelling to Alabania as well to some countries of former Yugoslavia. I am more than happy to put you in touch with some local communities like the ISOC Belgrade Chapter www.isoc.rs, a potential ALS from the region. We've been discussing our application for quite some time and if we had any capacity to participate in the ALS processes meaningfully. Also Share Foundation from Novi Sad do a great work in the region and outside the region and are organising an event in Belgrade during the last two days of the IGF in Istanbul if you could make it. I am currently in Croatia where there will be a regional event next weekend "Nothing will Happen" in Rijeka 21-24 with communities from old Yugoslavia: Macedonia, Croatia, Serbia and Bosnia, Slovenia but also Germany and Spain. Topics include community driven free wireless networks, public library, collaborative book writing but also politics and hacking. You would be most welcome to attend and I can send you details off the list or anyone to the list who's interested. If in Belgrade please stop by the open space I set up and co-founded in Belgrade www.oosm.org.

Off-topic, but not so much

I will attend the ICANN Studienkreis in Sofia at the end of this month (http://www.icann-studienkreis.net/) After that, I am planning to travel in Albania and the southern countries of the former Yugoslavia. I will be somewhat constrained in time, but if there will be the opportunity to meet with the local Internet communities, I would love to do it. To the best of my knowledge, there's no ALS over there (please correct me if I am wrong) but I would appreciate if someone has contacts. Cheers, Roberto
