Today, Monday December 27 2021, at 9:00pm EST (02:00 UTC Dec 28) in the second installment of the Internet Society Livestreaming‘s ‘12 Days of Streams‘ annual highlights, we celebrate Ian Peter, environmental activist and Australian Internet pioneer, who died yesterday. Ian Peter was also an Internet historian and leaves us nethistory.info, a comprehensive general reference.
Ian has been an outstanding leader in the evolution of the Internet from the 1980s to today. Those who never had the opportunity to meet him missed the chance to fully appreciate his kindness, dedication and sharp intellect. This wonderfully charming and bright Aussie was a key figure in the Internet’s early development and diffusion in the Asia-Pacific area. He was one of the original founding directors of the Association for Progressive Communications, the outstanding international network of organizations that has been and continues to do work that is crucial to the advancement of the Internet as a tool for the advancement of human rights via human communication.
We will always remember Ian for his passionate pursuit of the best possible future of global communication.

The Global Pandemic has now impacted our daily lives for a longer time than most of us would have imagined a year ago. In 2020, the Coalition’s Session was entitled: “Internet in Crisis Management and Renewal” – and this Crisis has continued to be the past year’s “new normal”. The Internet’s impact has increased dramatically in all aspects of everyone’s lives. Technically, it has coped well with this increased use, but there have also been calls for increased control and regulation.
The DC on Core Internet Values will discuss these developments and these calls for regulation — and explore whether these break Core Internet Values – including a comparison with the 6F Framework.
