The Fragile Network by Bill Thompson
One of the more persistent founding myths around the internet is that it was designed to be able to withstand a nuclear war, built by the US military to ensure that even after the bombs had fallen there would still be communications between surviving military bases. It isn't true, of course.

ICANN hires critic McCarthy
Back in July, we reported here that regular Technology Guardian contributor Kieren McCarthy was standing for membership of the ICANN board - in order "to make the ICANN community realise that you can ultimately achieve more by being open". Well, it seems he got part of the way there. Following recent movements via his blog, Kieren's obviously been getting involved in some work with the group, which basically runs the internet.

Domain Names as a Competitive Advantage
When Russian Standard Vodka purchased Vodka.com for $3M last year, lay people gasped at such an outrageous sum. But domainers simply thought, ?now there?s a company that gets it?. Russian Standard understands that owning the domain name will give it a competitive advantage in the crowded vodka space and will give the brand instant international credibility.

Moniker Auction Sells $2M in Domains
The holy grail of domain name sales is reaching the end user, not other domain investors. And that?s exactly what Moniker did at this week?s Internext conference in Las Vegas. I should note that the end user group Moniker reached was the adult entertainment business. Because this is a family-friendly site, I?m not going to list some of the sales. But top honors go to Shemale.com, which sold for $520,000. Here are some of the non-inflammatory domains that sold: Opportunity.com $150,000; Censored.com $58,500; EmergencyClinic.com $11,000; FuneralParlor.com $7,000; Inherited.com $6,100; MaritalAids.com $6,000; Opposites.com $6,000; Blondes.org $5,500; PrescriptionDrugPlans.com $5,000; ProfessionalAthletes.com $3,100; and Bartab.com $1,500.

The VoIP Peering Puzzle?Part 11: VeriSign ENUM Data Access Service
If you have sent an e-mail to a user with a .com or .net domain suffix recently, you have been interacting with address processing technology from VeriSign, Inc. The Mountain View, California-based company has a daily workload that is on the verge of mind-boggling: authoritative routing support for every web address ending with .com or .net, as many as 18 billion Domain Name System (DNS) queries every day; daily delivery of 100 million mobile-originated intercarrier SMS messages?plus over 600,000 multimedia messages; delivery of over 4.5 million ringtones, pictures, videos, and games to mobile telephone customers every day; monitoring 300 million retail transactions; and delivering over 150 million headline links. This adds up to quite a portfolio of accomplishments for a firm that was only founded in 1995, but has since grown to include 4,000 employees and, in 2005, boasted revenues of $1.66 billon.

Why do domains cost so much money? (blog)
Now, $8 or $9 per year is not bad at all? compared to what they used to cost. But, why do these companies charge so much for so little? Also, I?m not talking about those registrars with hosting available or anything, but for people like me- I buy the domain and within minutes it?s loaded onto a server.

Censorship by Proxy: The First Amendment, Internet Intermediaries, and the Problem of the Weakest Link by Seth F. Kreimer (University of Pennsylvania Law Review, Nov 2006)
The rise of the Internet has changed the First Amendment drama, for governments confront technical and political obstacles to sanctioning either speakers or listeners in cyberspace. Faced with these challenges, regulators have fallen back on alternatives, predicated on the fact that, in contrast to the usual free expression scenario, the Internet is not dyadic. The Internet?s resistance to direct regulation of speakers and listeners rests on a complex chain of connections, and emerging regulatory mechanisms have begun to focus on the weak links in that chain. Rather than attacking speakers or listeners directly, governments have sought to enlist private actors within the chain as proxy censors to control the flow of information.

Elephants and Mice Revisited: Law and Choice of Law on the Internet by Peter P. Swire (University of Pennsylvania Law Review, Jun 2005)
This Article seeks to explain those mysterious mechanisms. It does not primarily address the prescriptive task of saying what the optimal rules should be for resolving conflicting national laws that affect the Internet. Instead, it takes on a descriptive task. It treats choice of law on the Internet as a dependent variable; the task is to explain when and how choice-of-law rules actually matter on the Internet. That choice-of-law question, in turn, overlaps considerably with the even broader question?when and how does any rule of law actually matter on the Internet?

Technology and Internet Jurisdiction by Joel R. Reidenberg (University of Pennsylvania Law Review, Jun 2005)
This Essay argues that the initial wave of cases seeking to deny jurisdiction, choice of law, and enforcement to states where users and victims are located constitutes a type of ?denial-of-service? attack against the legal system. Internet separatists use technology-based arguments to deny the existence of sufficient contacts for jurisdiction and the applicability of rules of law interdicting certain behavior. From this perspective, the attackers seek to disable states from protecting their citizens online. The Essay next shows that innovations in information technology will undermine the technological assault on state jurisdiction. This counterintuitive effect is born out of the fact that more sophisticated computing enlists the processing capabilities and power of users? computers. This interactivity gives the victim?s state a greater nexus with offending acts and provides a direct relationship with the offender for purposes of personal jurisdiction and choice of law. Some of these same innovations also enable states to enforce their decisions electronically and consequently bypass the problems of foreign recognition and enforcement of judgments. Finally, the Essay argues that the exercise of state power through assertions of jurisdiction can and should be used to advance the development of more granular technologies and new service markets for legal compliance. Technologies should be available to enable Internet participants to respect the rule of law in states where their Internet activities reach. Assertions of state jurisdiction and electronic enforcement are likely to advance this public policy.

Companies, Groups Address Global Civil Liberties Challenges (news release)
CDT has joined with a broad group of companies, investors, academics, and human rights groups to address the free expression and privacy challenges facing companies that do business internationally. That process -- which aims to produce a set of principles guiding company behavior when faced with laws, regulations and policies that interfere with the achievement of human rights -- marks a new phase in efforts that the groups began in 2006. The joint process represents the merging of several concurrent efforts by companies, academics and public interest advocates to address the issues. One of those efforts was a series of consultations coordinated by CDT last year.

The European Commission is seeking feedback on how best to safeguard our electronic networks against disruption from attack or natural hazards. This follows today's public presentation of the findings of a study which identifies a range of important issues for ensuring that our future networks are sufficiently protected and resilient. As the services and processes that they support become increasingly interconnected and interdependent, the consequences of the failure of or criminal attack on a single network or sub-system could potentially be propagated more widely and faster than ever before. Protective measures need to be put in place to ensure that critical services and infrastructure are not vulnerable to such failures, and that there can be no "domino effect" that might otherwise result in a major technological collapse of communications and the many services they support.

ITU: Voice Revenues in the Telecommunications
The ITU workshop The Future of Voice held on the 15th and 16th of January 2007 in Geneva, Switzerland looked, inter alia, at the voice traffic and revenue trends in the last fifteen years. On the global level, local and national long-distance reported telephone minutes per capita were growing in the 1990s and stably falling since the beginning of the new decade. A notable exception of the general rule is the US experiencing continuous growth in the number of local minutes: in 15 years, the number of local minutes per capita has grown four-fold. The international outgoing traffic grew significantly over the last fifteen years: in the Republic of Korea, in 2005 it was 15 times more intensive than in 1990, in the US ? five times. Even though, since the beginning of the new century, the international voice traffic tends to slowly decrease.
