In the transcript from yesterday's IGF consultations, I again checked who
referred to privacy:
- UN Economic Commission for Africa: They mentioned everything, so...
- Raul Echeberria, LACNIC, IG Caucus: He argued to work on privacy and
related things (spam, cybercrime, ...) in order to overcome the
"ideological discussions" from WSIS - which I guess means struggling over
the root server and financing issues.
- Abdullteef Al-Abdulrazzaq, Kuwait information technology society (one of
our members, in fact): mentioned privacy and security as one of four issue
areas he recommends.
- Daniel Dardailler, W3C: Mentioned that W3C is also active in the privacy
field.
Another question: I saw that the Geneva Net Dialogue, which is an
Initiative by the Harvard and Stanford Law Schools (e.g. Larry Lessig is
on board) has suggested / offered to provide some kind of secretariat /
research / dialogue function in between the IGF meetings. Mary Rundle
mentioned that, and their written contribution they made this pretty
explicit. Were there any reactions to that?
