FW: [Soac-infoalert] ICANN Clarifies its Position in Response to Purported Threats Posed by Children-Related New gTLDs - ICANN
by James M. Bladel April 10, 2017

April 10, 2017

Councilors - Please see this announcement / statement from ICANN that was released Friday. Thank you, J. From: <soac-infoalert-bounces(a)icann.org> on behalf of David Olive <david.olive(a)icann.org> Date: Friday, April 7, 2017 at 15:02 Subject: [Soac-infoalert] ICANN Clarifies its Position in Response to Purported Threats Posed by Children-Related New gTLDs - ICANN https://www.icann.org/news/blog/icann-clarifies-its-position-in-response-to… ICANN Blog by Akram Atallah ICANN Clarifies its Position in Response to Purported Threats Posed by Children-Related New gTLDs Recently, the Children’s Charities Coalition on Internet Safety raised concerns that new generic Top Level Domains (gTLDs) may become new grounds for the functioning and distributing of child abuse content. ICANN wants to confirm its position. Child abuse and child pornography is a crime. It is illegal and as such there are many appropriate, already available, forms of law enforcement mechanisms to address issues like these. All ICANN’s contracted parties are required to abide by the laws of countries they operate in and laws that address these areas. This is not an issue ICANN takes lightly. The organization’s authority, with respect to registries and registrars, is derived solely by contract, and ICANN acts as an administrator of those contractual arrangements. There are safeguards in the new gTLD Registry Agreements (RA) related to highly-regulated or sensitive strings which were incorporated, as identified by the Governmental Advisory Committee<https://gacweb.icann.org/display/gacweb/Governmental+Advisory+Committee> (GAC). As an organization, ICANN is governed by a bottom up, consensus-driven multistakeholder model. The ICANN organization cannot unilaterally impose guidelines or requirements on registries, registrars or other stakeholders in a top-down manner. Policy recommendations, as per ICANN’s bylaws (see section 6.1) <https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en#VI> are developed and refined by the ICANN community through its Supporting Organizations and influenced by Advisory Committees – all comprised of volunteers from across the world – in a "bottom-up," multistakeholder, open and transparent process. Each Supporting Organization has its own specific policy development process. For anything unlawful, we rely on courts and governmental regulatory authorities to police illegal activity. As an organization, ICANN does not require registries to regulate web content, but some registries have voluntarily promised the community that they would do so and have asked ICANN to make these commitments enforceable via the registry agreement. ICANN is cognizant of the seriousness of this issue and others, which is why we have been working closely with the public safety community, including law enforcement, to ensure that they understand and make correct use of policies and processes. ICANN and the Governmental Advisory Committee<https://gacweb.icann.org/display/gacweb/Governmental+Advisory+Committee>’s (GAC) Public Safety Working Group<https://gacweb.icann.org/display/gacweb/GAC+Public+Safety+Working+Group> have been working together to create awareness on how to participate in ICANN and engage effectively in the GAC and ICANN’s policy making processes. One of the main areas of work has been capacity building within law enforcement agencies and the review of the Domain Name System (DNS) and its impact on public safety. Additionaly, ICANN takes steps to remind all new gTLD registry operators of the Governmental Advisory Committee’s view expressed in Buenos Aires Communiqué on the importance of protecting children and their rights, consistent with the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. (For more on this important topic, see entry #13 in Annex 1 to ICANN NGPC Resolution No. 2014.02.05.NG01 at http://www.icann.org/en/groups/board/documents/resolutions-new-gtld-annex-1…. ICANN’s mission is to ensure the stable and secure operation of the Internet's unique identifier systems. As a global organization, we aim to realize our mission through our multistakeholder model, which depends on open, inclusive, transparent and accountable engagement, participation and policy development contributions from all stakeholders, ranging from businesses to governments to individual Internet users. David A. Olive Senior Vice President Policy Development Support Managing Director, ICANN Regional Headquarters –Istanbul Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN)

Call for volunteers - GNSO Council liaisons
by Marika Konings April 10, 2017

April 10, 2017

Dear All, An open action item from the wrap up session at ICANN58 was to solicit new volunteers for the role of Council liaison to the following initiatives: · Cross-Community Working Group on Internet Governance · GNSO Rights & Obligations under the Revised ICANN Bylaws Drafting Team · Translation/Transliteration of Internationalized Registration Data Implementation Review Team · Thick WHOIS Implementation Review Team – Volunteer: Susan Kawaguchi Please indicate on the mailing list if you are interested to take on this role (thank you to Susan for already volunteering for the Thick WHOIS IRT!). The objective is to confirm the new liaisons at the upcoming Council meeting. As a reminder, the GNSO Working Group Guidelines describe the role of a liaison as follows: The role of the Liaison consists of reporting to the CO [Chartering Organization] on a regular basis on the progress of the Working Group; assisting the Chair as required with his/her knowledge of WG processes and practices; taking back to the CO any questions or queries the WG might have in relation to its charter and mission; and, assisting or intervening when the WG faces challenges or problems. The Liaison is expected to play a neutral role, monitor the discussions of the Working Group and assist and inform the Chair and the WG as required. The CO is therefore strongly encouraged to appoint an individual to the role of liaison who is expected to remain neutral and fulfill the role as described above. Furthermore, in the context of an Implementation Review Team (IRT) there are potential additional responsibilities for the liaison as outlined in the IRT Principles and Guidelines (see https://gnso.icann.org/en/council/irt-principles-guidelines-23aug16-en.pdf) Best regards, Marika Marika Konings Vice President, Policy Development Support – GNSO, Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) Email: marika.konings(a)icann.org<mailto:marika.konings@icann.org> Follow the GNSO via Twitter @ICANN_GNSO Find out more about the GNSO by taking our interactive courses<http://learn.icann.org/courses/gnso> and visiting the GNSO Newcomer pages<http://gnso.icann.org/sites/gnso.icann.org/files/gnso/presentations/policy-…>.

In response to a Call for Volunteers, the following Councilors volunteered to serve as Council liaisons to the respective groups noted against their names: [INSERT RELEVANT CCWG/WG/IRT AND COUNCILOR NAMES] Here the Council is expected to confirm the appointments of the above-named Councilors as Council liaisons to the respective groups. Item 4. COUNCIL VOTE – Approval of GNSO Council Review of the GAC Communique from Copenhagen (20 minutes) The GNSO Council has adopted the practice of providing feedback to the ICANN Board on matters pertaining to gTLD policy, where the Governmental Advisory Committee (GAC) has included advice on such matters as part of a GAC Communique issued at each ICANN Public Meeting. Following the issuance of the GAC Copenhagen Communique (https://gacweb.icann.org/download/attachments/27132037/GAC%20ICANN%2058%20C…) a team of Councilors and the current GNSO Liaison to the GAC agreed to prepare an initial draft of possible GNSO Council input to the Board for Council consideration.

At the Council’s request, ICANN’s Finance Team conducted a webinar on 4 April 2017 covering those aspects of the proposed Budget of interest to the GNSO community (https://gnso.icann.org/en/meetings/presentation-gnso-update-04apr17-en.pdf) A draft of the proposed Council comments was circulated to the GNSO Council on [INSERT DATE].

Under the Bylaws, the each Supporting Organization and Advisory Committee may nominate up to 7 candidates for the RT, with its first 3 preferred candidates being guaranteed a spot on the RT. The GNSO’s Standing Selection Committee (established by the GNSO Council in March 2017: https://gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions#20170315-2) met to discuss those volunteers who had indicated they wished to be nominated by the GNSO, and has reached full consensus on a slate of 7 nominees.
