June Plenary Session 9:15-10:30 |
| The
Quest for Global Self-Regulation |
| From
new Top-level Domain to Napster and Hate speech, Internet is facing
difficult and inevitable global challenges. As people can interact,
trade and work together globally with minimal cost instantly over
the Net, such traditional frameworks as national border, tax and duty,
censorship, and copyright are not as effectively functioning as before.
What can we do, then? One answer is self-regulation. But as ICANN's
recent At-Large membership director election illustrates, enforcing
effective self- regulation not an easy task. At this panel, we will
examine how much (rough) consensus we have. |

June Plenary Session 11:00 |
| Intellectual
Property Debate |
| Does
information want to be free or does it want to be expensive? Many
musicians, movie studios, publishers, and software makers fear that
Napster, Gnutella, Freenet, and similar Internet services threaten
their ability to control their intellectual property. Content creators
are fighting back with court challenges and new laws, such as the
Digital Millennium Copyright Act in the United States. This session
will be a formal debate over the whether in the future the Internet
will increase or decrease the capability of content owners to control
and charge for their copyrighted material. At the end, an audience
poll will determine which side won the argument. |
