ALAC Statement on the eG8 Forum -- VERSION 2
Not anonymous, from Christopher and Cintra:
Introduction
The At Large is the ICANN community representing end users, other than the commercial or technical communities. ICANN works on the basis of a multi-stakeholder environment and a bottom-up decision making process.
...
ALAC supports the G8 objectives to:-
- Improve everyone's access to the Internet;
...
- Enable everyone to participate in global networks and promote respect for freedom of expression and opinion;
...
- Improve security of the Internet and protection of individuals; and
...
- Recommend examination of the Internet's economic and technical challenges.
We also recognise that several Internet organisations including ICANN, W3C, IAB and the Internet Society have been invited to be present in the eG8 Forum and that the outcome of the eG8 Forum may be submitted to the G8 Summit.
...
The G8 will only be able to comprehend and include the perspectives of all Internet stakeholders if Internet end users and consumers are effectively represented and able to participate in discussions such as the eG8 meeting next week.
