Thanks for the links. Very enlightening.
Still, I think the VOIP/commerce issue would be more in the WTO's bailiwick than the UN or whatever task force they come up with.
On one hand, there's good potential in allowing other countries--developing nations especially--help guide the development of the Internet. Hopefully it would give freedom of communication to countries like China and North Korea. (Wouldn't hold my breath though. )
Then again, I'm not too keen on a body with a track record such as the UN's running the 'Net. (Have they fixed anything lately? ) Fortunately there was compromise thanks to Japan, the EU and Canada(eh). |
