		<description><![CDATA[On Friday, 23rd June, Caribbean telecommunications operators (telcos) held a meeting in Miami to fine tune their strategy to force Big Tech companies to contribute financially to regional telecoms network infrastructure. Hosted by the Caribbean Telecommunications Union (CTU), and taking a similar perspective to the "fair share" proposal currently being debated in the European Union, regional network operators are arguing that over-the-top (OTT) service providers are responsible for 67 percent of the total Internet traffic in the Caribbean, but make no contributions or investments toward local delivery networks. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20230627-eu-fair-share-contagion-caribbean-telecoms-operators-seek-to-deepen-their-monopoly-strangleholds">More...</a>]]></description>

		<link>https://circleid.com/posts20220121-the-uk-seeks-to-enforce-tougher-standards-on-msps</link>
		<description><![CDATA[The UK government is proposing new regulations to strengthen cyber resilience in the private sector. Their intention is to expand cybersecurity rules for critical infrastructure (CI) operators to include managed service providers (MSPs), more stringent breach notification requirements, and legislation to establish the UK Cyber Security Council as the standards development organization for the cybersecurity profession. This is a welcomed development, but more details about implementation and enforcement are needed. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20220121-the-uk-seeks-to-enforce-tougher-standards-on-msps">More...</a>]]></description>

		<title> Dissecting the 2022 UK Cyber Security Strategy: The 'Whole of Society' Approach (Featured Blog)</title>

		<link>https://circleid.com/posts20220116-dissecting-the-2022-uk-cyber-security-strategy-the-whole-of-society-approach</link>
		<description><![CDATA[The UK government launched its 2022 Cyber Security Strategy on 15 December 2021, outlining its ambitious plans to improve the resilience of UK institutions and businesses while protecting the country's interests in cyberspace. The strategy signals a more involved approach by the government, which previously relied heavily on the private sector for leadership. The government's stated commitment to a 'whole of society' approach sounds really good on paper, but what exactly does it really mean? <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20220116-dissecting-the-2022-uk-cyber-security-strategy-the-whole-of-society-approach">More...</a>]]></description>

		<title> Where’s the Blockchain Killer App? Maybe It’s Buried Underneath All the Hype! (Featured Blog)</title>

		<link>https://circleid.com/posts20181212_where_is_blockchain_killer_app_maybe_its_buried_under_the_hype</link>
		<description><![CDATA[In recent times, I've been struggling to determine where blockchain has demonstrated its immensely promised value, delivered true market or stakeholder value, or disrupted an existing ecosystem. And thus far, what I keep coming up with is that "blockchain is truly a solution searching for a problem." Most of all, many of its enthusiasts and proponents are generally conceptual thinkers and/or snake oil salespersons who have little to no experience delivering secure, integrated, complex systems. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20181212_where_is_blockchain_killer_app_maybe_its_buried_under_the_hype">More...</a>]]></description>

		<title> Should Domain Names be Considered 'Contracts for Service' or 'Property Rights'? (Featured Blog)</title>
		<guid isPermaLink="true">https://circleid.com/posts20180628_domain_names_considered_contracts_for_service_or_property_rights</guid>
		<link>https://circleid.com/posts20180628_domain_names_considered_contracts_for_service_or_property_rights</link>
		<description><![CDATA[The legal status of domain names is one of the most hotly debated topics with regards to evolving property rights and how they should be applied to technological and intellectual property 'innovations' in cyberspace. At present, there are two opposing factions on this topic: On one hand, there are those who maintain that domain names should be considered as contracts for services, which originate from the contractual agreement between the registrant and the registrar. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20180628_domain_names_considered_contracts_for_service_or_property_rights">More...</a>]]></description>

		<title> Why Bitcoin Will Not Solve the Caribbean's Financial Inclusion Woes (Featured Blog)</title>

		<description><![CDATA[There's a deluge of hype around Bitcoin and blockchain technologies right now, and policymakers and regulators in the Caribbean are doing their best to wrap their heads around the advantages and disadvantages of this virtual currency. Similar questions are being contemplated in the ICTs for development (ICT4D) community, taking into account that electronic money (e-money) platforms such as Safaricom's M-PESA have essentially solved the financial inclusion quandary for millions of people in Kenya. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20171003_why_bitcoin_will_not_solve_the_caribbeans_financial_inclusion_woes">More...</a>]]></description>

		<title> Does ICANN's UDRP Preserve Free Speech and Allow Room for Criticism? (Featured Blog)</title>
		<guid isPermaLink="true">https://circleid.com/posts20170504_does_icanns_udrp_preserve_free_speech_and_allow_room_for_criticism</guid>
		<link>https://circleid.com/posts20170504_does_icanns_udrp_preserve_free_speech_and_allow_room_for_criticism</link>
		<description><![CDATA[The phenomenal growth of the Internet has resulted in a proliferation of domain names. The explosion of '.com' registrations coincided with an increase in domain name disputes, and with it the legal branch of intellectual property devolved into virtual mayhem. ICANN's Uniform Domain-Name Dispute-Resolution Policy (UDRP) was created... The UDRP was brought into force in October 1999, and it can be said that it has contributed handily to the resolution of domain name disputes. However, deeper investigation into the UDRP paints a different picture. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20170504_does_icanns_udrp_preserve_free_speech_and_allow_room_for_criticism">More...</a>]]></description>

		<title> 8 Reasons Why Cybersecurity Strategy and Business Operations are Inseparable (Featured Blog)</title>
		<guid isPermaLink="true">https://circleid.com/posts20170513_why_cybersecurity_and_business_operations_are_inseparable</guid>
		<link>https://circleid.com/posts20170513_why_cybersecurity_and_business_operations_are_inseparable</link>
		<description><![CDATA[In modern society, there is one fact that is unquestionable: The hyper-connectivity of the digital economy is inescapable. A financial institution without an online presence or omni-channel strategy will cease to be competitive. Universities (for-profit or non-profit) must develop and continuously evolve their online learning capabilities if they are to stay relevant. Online retailers are quickly outpacing and rendering their 'brick-and-mortar' counterparts irrelevant. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20170513_why_cybersecurity_and_business_operations_are_inseparable">More...</a>]]></description>
