		<guid isPermaLink="true">https://circleid.com/posts20240916-book-review-forks-in-the-digital-road</guid>
		<link>https://circleid.com/posts20240916-book-review-forks-in-the-digital-road</link>
		<description><![CDATA[At first glance, this book looks like another history of the Internet, but it is much, much more. The authors use their engineering and scholarly understanding of what constitutes Internet history to identify forks in the digital road and key past decisions that shaped the Internet's path. The first part of the book maps out the core technical and policy decisions that created the Internet.  <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20240916-book-review-forks-in-the-digital-road">More...</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wolfgang Kleinwaechter, in his Internet Governance Outlook 2024, reminded us that 2024, as the years before and future years, will be pivotal for Internet Governance processes. We eagerly await Wolfgang's missives every January, and we trust what we read because we know him, and we trust CircleID. We should be grateful and cherish this example of straightforward, digitally enabled, and trust-based human communication... <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20240205-would-the-amenscha-in-the-room-please-stand-up">More...</a>]]></description>

		<title> Realizing the Promise of AI in a World Where Human Rights Matter (Featured Blog)</title>

		<link>https://circleid.com/posts20231013-realizing-the-promise-of-ai-in-a-world-where-human-rights-matter</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Artificial Intelligence, AI, is often portrayed and perceived as just one more innovative stage in a long line of ever more sophisticated and powerful tools that humans use to survive and prosper. AI is different! As its name states, its ambition and goal is not to be just another tool but to introduce an artificial (digital) intelligence that is free from the weaknesses humans confront when doing some tasks. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20231013-realizing-the-promise-of-ai-in-a-world-where-human-rights-matter">More...</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The digital domain encompasses the different spaces and spheres we use to relate and interact with the people and things that surround us using digital technologies. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, UDHR, as the globally accepted standard, should serve us as the guiding light when it comes to striking the delicate balance between our rights and responsibilities on and off-line. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20230807-human-rights-and-the-digital-domain-primer-part-3">More...</a>]]></description>

		<title> Exploring Common Ground: Human Rights at ICANN (Featured Blog)</title>
		<guid isPermaLink="true">https://circleid.com/posts20230605-exploring-common-ground-human-rights-at-icann</guid>
		<link>https://circleid.com/posts20230605-exploring-common-ground-human-rights-at-icann</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Our relationship to human rights is ambivalent. We take them for granted, we don't want to be without them, but on the other hand, we see them as somewhat abstract and aspirational, a lofty ideal easily forgotten and set aside in our daily struggles. When it comes to the digital domain, human rights are seen by many as an unwanted source of regulations in an industry that demands "unregulated innovation." <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20230605-exploring-common-ground-human-rights-at-icann">More...</a>]]></description>

		<link>https://circleid.com/posts20230524-human-rights-and-the-digital-domain-primer-part-1</link>
		<description><![CDATA[The digital domain encompasses the different spaces and spheres we use to relate and interact with the people and things that surround us using digital technologies. The digital domain is not limited to the technologies itself, but it has an important ethical dimension that encompasses the values, principles and instruments that inform and govern it. Created by humans for humans, our beliefs, cultural backgrounds, and biases are reflected in the codes we write and the algorithms we create. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20230524-human-rights-and-the-digital-domain-primer-part-1">More...</a>]]></description>

		<title> In AI, We Trust!? (Featured Blog)</title>

		<link>https://circleid.com/posts20230509-in-ai-we-trust</link>
		<description><![CDATA[When it comes to Artificial Intelligence (AI), there is a widespread fear that AI machines will "take over" and dominate humanity. Today, we should be concerned when governments and digital corporations use AI to replace trust as the fundamental value and principle in the digital domain. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20230509-in-ai-we-trust">More...</a>]]></description>

		<title> For ICANN to Have a Future, It Needs to Take Human Rights Considerations Seriously (Featured Blog)</title>

		<description><![CDATA[Despite previous attempts1 I think it is safe to say that the discussion about Human Rights in ICANN was, until recently, fairly dead, even taboo. Nowadays, there seems to be a renewed demand for ICANN to have a future, and it needs to take Human Rights considerations seriously. During the ICANN Cancun meeting, representatives from several stakeholder groups mentioned HR and how they might support ICANN by informing its policy-making processes. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20230424-for-icann-to-have-a-future-it-needs-to-take-human-rights-considerations-seriously">More...</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wolfgang Kleinwaechters Internet Governance Outlook on CircleID each year sums up the drama of internet governance as it is played out on the global stage. We assume that all players on the internet governance stage work under the premise that despite all our differences, ultimately, we are united in our quest for "freedom from fear and want" based on the quality and dignity of all human beings, as expressed in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20230118-kleinwaechters-treasure-map">More...</a>]]></description>

		<link>https://circleid.com/posts20220920-your-choice</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Let's face it. The suppression of free speech is happening all over the Internet. Examples range from fanatics shouting down "unbelievers" in chatrooms to governments silencing voices to rig elections. We are equally convinced that freedom of speech as a principle should be generally upheld in cyberspace. This principle is strong where freedom and democracy are strong. It shines bright for those in search of freedom and democracy. Well, folks, think again. A recent experience has made me think otherwise. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20220920-your-choice">More...</a>]]></description>

		<title> How to Restore Trust Into Cyberspace? Beer Has the Answer! (Featured Blog)</title>
		<guid isPermaLink="true">https://circleid.com/posts20220913-how-to-restore-trust-into-cyberspace-beer-has-the-answer</guid>
		<link>https://circleid.com/posts20220913-how-to-restore-trust-into-cyberspace-beer-has-the-answer</link>
		<description><![CDATA[Let's face it, when it comes to digital technologies, fundamental human rights are not on top of the digital agenda. They seem irrelevant and remote, even an obstacle to digital innovation and opportunities. We are quick to pay lip service to them, but we permit the profit motive and stakeholder self-interests to override human rights principles. It does not matter how right and righteous the cause might be; to be implemented, it must be profitable or carry stakeholder benefits. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20220913-how-to-restore-trust-into-cyberspace-beer-has-the-answer">More...</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We are experiencing a time of global challenges. How to mitigate global warming, fight a global pandemic, and prevent the spread of totalitarianism and war, are just some of the most urgent questions. Digital technologies offer us the tools to unite and face these challenges, instead, we have experienced the deterioration of the Internet into a Splinternet. Is Multistakeholderism, the currently dominant guiding principle of Internet Governance, still up to the task? <a href="https://circleid.com/posts20220328-time-for-a-better-vision-of-internet-governance-multistakeholderism-to-citizenship">More...</a>]]></description>
