13) Additional Information (optional): | I am a tech transaction lawyer with a strong interest in Internet governance and human rights. This is a SOI to become a participant in the human rights working group for Workstream 2. I recently published an article on ICANN and its human rights commitment. It is the first article in the new American Bar Association publication, The Clarion.http://apps.americanbar.org/webupload/commupload/IC950000/relatedresources/Clarion1.1.pdf The paper takes a position on the new human rights bylaw that ICANN's Board of Directors recently approved. But I have an open mind, no ax to grind, and believe I have something to contribute as a participant of the working group. My law firm bio is at http://mh-llp.com/our-people/daniel-appelman |
