Dear colleagues,
Please find attached the comments of the French Government (and a short translation below) on the jurisdiction report.
We have send these comments for the public consultation and we would like to insist for integrate these comments into the report of the jurisdiction subgroup.
“The French government thanks the sub-group in charge of the jurisdiction for the many efforts made to advance this crucial issue to strengthen the accountability of ICANN to the entire multi-stakeholder community. Since its launch in June 2016, the Jurisdiction sub-group has had deep disagreements among members, which reflect a wide divergence of views on the group's mandate, its objectives and the scope of possible solutions.
Although the proposals of the ICANN Jurisdiction Report go in the right direction, the French Government believes that they will not be sufficient to truly address the issues raised by the unilateral exercise of a particular jurisdiction over a particular jurisdiction. organization whose mandate is to manage a global common good, the system of domain names.
Currently, ICANN is an entity under US law, which has many implications for ICANN's accountability to equality between different stakeholders. Indeed, this status implies that ICANN's activities remain governed by the right of only one State, that of the United States, and that US jurisdictions have jurisdiction ex officio. However, the goal of improving ICANN's accountability to the entire Internet community means that its legal accountability to all stakeholders without any one being favored over another and no country in the world. particular, directly or indirectly, in the full realization by ICANN of its global public.
Given the strong divergences within the sub-working group, the French government encourages members to explore new solutions, in particular proposing to introduce immunities, in particular partial immunities, from jurisdiction to ICANN in order to guarantee its autonomy and its accountability to the entire global Internet community.”
Thank you very much.
Best,
