There are many companies in the spam-fighting business and most, if not all, claim to be hugely successful. Yet spam is exponentially more prevalent today than it was just 2 years ago. How can one conclude that today's anti spam solutions are working? This year spammers will use machine-generated programs to send trillions of unsolicited email. Thankfully, a new anti-spam technology has made its way into the market. more
This document is intended to be a starting point for a discussion on upcoming city Top-Level Domain Names (city TLDs) such as .berlin, .nyc, or .london. It reflects considerations about the impact of city TLDs on the city society, the individuals in the city, the regional and global environment, and the Internet at large. more
The battle over open-source AI echoes England's Enclosure Movement, pitting collaboration against proprietary control as technology firms compete to shape innovation, economic power and the future governance of the digital commons. more
As trillions flow into AI infrastructure, Asia's biggest emerging markets remain underfunded. Beyond power and geopolitics, obscure internet governance, IPv4 allocation, and regulatory ambiguity may be quietly shaping where hyperscale capital chooses to build. more
As AI increasingly relies on digital archives, the quiet revision of ICANNWiki entries raises broader questions about platform accountability, historical integrity, and whether institutions can reshape the records that future researchers and machines will treat as fact. more
The IGF-DCAD fellowship shows that meaningful inclusion requires more than open access. By funding accessibility, leadership and participation, it offers a practical blueprint for making Internet governance genuinely representative of the one-sixth of humanity living with disabilities. more
Orbiting data centers promise cleaner power, cheaper cooling and relief from terrestrial opposition, but formidable engineering, regulatory and orbital governance challenges may keep ambitious space-based computing grounded for years unless launch economics improve dramatically first. more
AI is dismantling the web's impression economy as users consume summarized information instead of visiting websites. Value is shifting from traffic and advertising toward trusted content, licensing, attribution and intellectual property that machines increasingly rely upon. more
As AI increasingly answers questions directly, the web's advertising-driven bargain is breaking down. Content, not distribution, is becoming scarce, forcing publishers, platforms and infrastructure providers to rethink how information is funded, licensed and sustained. more
As AI reshapes the digital world, online safety depends on balancing smarter protection with growing risks. From cybersecurity to privacy concerns, understanding AI's role can help users stay secure, informed, and resilient online. more
Fake news spreads quickly online, fueling distrust, manipulation, and conflict. As AI-generated content grows more sophisticated, media literacy, fact-checking, and vigilance are essential to protecting online safety and preserving trust in information. more
As AI agents scale, IP reputation emerges as a hidden constraint, shaping access to external systems and degrading performance. Managing network identity, not just models, is becoming essential for reliable data collection. more
AI agents are rapidly becoming primary internet users, with inference-driven traffic reshaping network demands and exposing infrastructure blind spots as latency-sensitive, machine-to-machine activity begins to outpace and outcompete human web behavior. more
Africa's looming AI rules expose a deeper problem: foreign-controlled infrastructure, weak enforcement capacity and externally governed data flows are eroding digital sovereignty, leaving states unable to regulate, protect citizens or meet global obligations. more
The UN's new permanent cybersecurity mechanism promises continuity after decades of fleeting forums, yet risks irrelevance unless states enforce existing law, bridge cybercrime divides, address AI threats, build practical capacity, and include non-state expertise meaningfully. more
