Net Neutrality And Cyber Surveillance


Buzz words like “net neutrality” and “cyber surveillance” are often heard and seen in the media, along with various bills referred to by various acronyms. What does it all mean, and why should you care?

Canadians have long enjoyed relatively open and free access to Internet. One of the most important aspects of the Internet is the information and ideas that it has provided to billions of people worldwide. The Internet has been a catalyst for social and political change, spreading concepts and ideas around the globe in a short period of time, and has even had a role in helping take down oppressive regimes. It is where free speech and innovation are king.

The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) developed a framework in 2009 which guides Internet service providers (ISPs) on accepted Internet Traffic Management Practices (ITMPs).

Amazing inspirational words of wisdom.
I was inspired by the clip created by TragedyandHope and decided to make my own with images of my own dreams.

Humanity From Space Full Episode

Earth From Space Full HD Nova

The groundbreaking two-hour special that reveals a spectacular new space-based vision of our planet. Produced in extensive consultation with NASA scientists, NOVA takes data from earth-observing satellites and transforms it into dazzling visual sequences, each one exposing the intricate and surprising web of forces that sustains life on earth.




US Company Developing Space-Based Plane Tracking

One of the reasons Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 hasn't been found is because the plane couldn't be tracked continuously over the ocean. In fact, nearly 3/4 of the globe is untrackable by ground-based radar, the typical way to keep track of aircraft since the 1940s. VOA's Carolyn Presutti explains how one company plans to deploy space-based tracking payloads so that 100% of the earth is trackable and no plane will ever be "lost" again.


Internet Governance

Internet governance is the development and application of shared principles, norms, rules, decision-making procedures, and programs that shape the evolution and use of the Internet. This article describes how the Internet was and is currently governed, some of the controversies that occurred along the way, and the ongoing debates about how the Internet should or should not be governed in the future.

Internet governance should not be confused with E-Governance, which refers to governments' use of technology to carry out their governing duties.

The U.S. government will set the DNS root free

We applaud the recent statement from the NTIA announcing its intention to “transition key Internet domain name functions to the global multistakeholder community.” This is a historic moment in the evolution of Internet governance.

IGP has been leading the call for the US government to be consistent about its non-governmental approach to Internet governance since 2005. Naturally, we were gratified to see the Commerce Department finally come around to that position. Far from “giving up” something or “losing control,” the U.S. is sure to find that its policy has gained strength. We have just made it a lot harder for opponents of a free and open Internet to pretend that what they are really against is an Internet dominated by one hegemonic state. We have also made it harder for anyone to complain that multistakeholder governance is just a fig leaf for U.S. pre-eminence. Now the debate between global governance institutions rooted in the Internet community itself, and institutions based on nation-states, will be clearer.

What's Wrong With Eating Eggs And Fish?

What's Wrong With Fish? Is Fish a Healthy Alternative to Meat?



Is eating fish good for my heart?

Is eating fish good for my heart?



I'm from Dorchester people say eating fish is
good for my heart is that true fish is
good for you just one serving a week
reduces your risk of sudden death by 50%
so not a lot of fish can be associated
with dramatic reductions in heart
disease now some of you might think that
fish reduces your weight that's probably
not a lot of the reason it's a benefit a
lot of it has to do with the fact that
those fish change the walls of the cells
of your heart it stabilizes those walls
or membranes of your heart so they don't
have as many arrhythmias or heartbeats
that go awry it also makes your blood
less sticky

Mapping out the IANA transition

The U.S. Commerce Department announcement that it will end its unilateral control of the DNS root stimulated a great deal of debate and discussion during the Singapire ICANN meeting March 21 – 27. Thanks to the IGP proposal, structural separation of ICANN and IANA is a much-discussed option in the transition.

The country code registry for New Zealand, InternetNZ, has contributed additional value to this debate. It has prepared a set of diagrams that map out just what activities and functions are part of current governance arrangements for the domain name system. It shows what IANA, ICANN, the NTIA and Verisign actually do. Related functions are neatly grouped into boxes. The InternetNZ diagrams show how various approaches to the IANA transition would parcel out those functions to various entities. InternetNZ thus provides us with a very useful guide to the IANA transition. The 9-page document, which is must reading for anyone interested in the IANA transition, can be downloaded here:
