[IRP] [governance] Declaration of Internet Freedom

Hi
Just catching up on a ton of emails while traveling; I wanted to set out a
few broader thoughts (sorry for the long email).
No one person or group 'owns' the internet, should determine how it is
governed, or has the mandate to create the set of internet principles.
Instead a willingness to enter into conversations, to understand what came
before and improve from one's own starting point should be a defining
factor with which to judge initiatives. In the context of principles, I am
of the opinion that we should not only allow, but encourage a thousand
connected flowers to bloom. And that is exactly what is happening, in many
different and varied forums (the compiled list is a great resource - thanks
Jeremy for putting this together). Seeing how some of those initiatives may
converge and support each other I think is the next step.
With respect to the Internet Declaration, there was a lot of momentum post
SOPA/PIPA, so trying to propel that energy with a positive agenda (as
opposed to 'Down with SOPA/PIPA!' etc), seems smart to me. Access first
became engaged in part because its aim (as can be seen from the
preamble<http://www.internetdeclaration.org/freedom>)
was to actively engage users in the discussion (hence reedit, techdirt
etc). I am strongly of the opinion that an internet declaration cannot be
written by a few people behind closed doors. I have conveyed to the core
group of drafters of the importance of making sure that this Internet
Declaration be part of the conversation, not *the* conversation, and that a
final, more complete declaration should be allowed to evolve. The
Declaration as is, is going global; there are individuals signatories from
more 120 counties; hundreds organizational signatories (including APC,
Amnesty International Bytes for All (Pakistan), Global Voices, Reporters
without Borders etc).
To my mind, there are certainly things that are missing from the
Declaration. For example, whilst all of the principles are rights based
(hence why Amnesty International and we signed on) the words 'human rights'
are not mentioned. It does not include some of the elements of the 10
Internet Rights and Principles. 'Life, liberty and security' for example is
missing. It also does not recognize properly the principles and documents
that have come before, including WSIS commitments. In its defense it says *"We
are joining an international movement to defend our freedoms because we
believe that they are worth fighting for."* There is some momentum towards
addressing these concerns (including putting or referencing other
initiatives in the Preamble) and I with others have been pushing for this.
*
* *On the IRP 10 Rights and Principles <http://irpcharter.org/campaign/>, *I
agree with others analysis above.* *It was pretty clear to me in 2010 that
the Charter was just too dense for advocates, many policy makers and most
users and was (rightly) taking a long time to get it right. A few of us at
the IGF in Vilnius agreed to take the lead on drafting a "distilled, punchy
version" of the Charter, and after many (many) rounds of internal debate
and discussion on the IRP list and beyond, we got consensus as Dixie and
others pointed out. I personally think are awesome (except one word in
Principle 10 should say multistakeholder not multilateral).
I know these 10 principles are being used in many contexts (its translated
in 21 languages). The problem however with this document was that it was
never given the resources to publicize it and unlike the Declaration,
didn't have the organizational reach to get it out into the user-base. See
the list below by way of contrast. This doesn't mean the 10 Rights and
Principles are not important - they have a life of their own, and we should
continue to push them in appropriate forums, including into the text of the
Internet Declaration. As Wolfgang said in another thread, this material
should be more actively used and there is opportunity to operationalise
them as Dixie has suggested.
Getting buy in, let alone consensus as we all know can be a total
nightmare. It can lead to paralysis, but I think its worth trying. I also
want to note, that many groups haven't ever heard of the IGC, the IRP
Dynamic Coalition or Enhanced Cooperation - why would they have? We need to
engage more people (particularly Americans?) in the WSIS process, to
understand the commitments and to take the IGF process forward
(incidentally I dont think we need a new IGF or otherwise). One last point
on this - with so many active and informed individuals on this list, some
of the conversations can be pretty overwhelming/intimidating, so its hard
to invite new people here.
I was also thinking that the IGF might be the right time to try to bring
the stakeholders together. A quo vardis meeting (let's not call it that!)
or IRP meeting would make sense. I would love to be part of that. I also
think that there is lots of room for cross pollination before then and look
forward to discussions online ahead of a face to face meeting. Sam's
suggestions of curation and coordination should be encouraged.
Best wishes,
Brett
PS Who hacked the IRP site and how? I can get our tech defense team to look
at it if that is useful.
