About ICANN ICANN's mission is to help ensure a stable, secure, and unified global Internet. To reach another person on the Internet, you need to type an address – a name or a number – into your computer or other device. That address must be unique so computers know where to find each other. ICANN helps coordinate and support these unique identifiers across the world. ICANN was formed in 1998 as a not-for-profit public-benefit corporation with a community of participants from all over the world.

Re: [At-Large] [ALAC-Announce] A briefing by the European Commission
by Olivier MJ Crépin-Leblond Feb. 19, 2021

Feb. 19, 2021

Hello all, I recommended this Webinar as it feels somehow as a milestone in ICANN's history. The GDPR - General Data Protection Regulation, that was rolled out and enforced by the European Commission, had a big impact on ICANN's registration directory services. Whilst a replacement to WHOIS, the database of domain name registrants, has been in research for many years, the GDPR has changed the game and ICANN had to create an "expedited policy development process - EPDP" in the GNSO to create new rules relating to the access to registration data. That work is still in progress. However, in recent times, the European Commission has continued its work on ICT issues by drafting a "Digital Services Act" and launched some cybersecurity policy initiatives. Both these processes have the potential to directly affect some of ICANN's work. The milestone moment is that it is the first time that a number of senior policy representatives from a governing body such as the European Commission, are ready to interact directly not only with ICANN Org, but also with the ICANN Community. Of course there have been plenty of interactions in the past with the US Department of Commerce. There have also been plenty of interactions with governments in the GAC. But this time is different in that it is a set of non-US government representatives ready to have a dialogue with the different ICANN communities. Personally I have mixed feelings about this: on the one hand, I think it is a excellent opportunity to bring input to the European Commission - and to also understand the underlying reasons behind some of the proposed regulations. I am delighted that this interaction is taking place! On the other hand, I wonder what would happen if each government in the world were to start its own regulations and to engage the ICANN community on each of these regulations? What I mean by this, is the concern that was expressed in the latest Engagement Group on Internet Governance Session that regulation has the potential for Internet fragmentation. Yes, what a can of worms! So that's why this forthcoming session sounds like it's going to be super interesting on many levels. Don't miss it!
