LivestreamOn Tuesday 10 December 2019 at 18:00 UTC (1pm EST) Chatham House hosts a discussion ‘Who Runs the Internet: Internet Consolidation and Control‘ in London. In recent years, there has been a growing debate around the influence of a few large internet technology companies on the internet’s infrastructure and over the popular applications and social media platforms that we use every day. The internet which was once widely viewed as a collective platform for limitless, permissionless innovation, competition and growth, is now increasingly viewed as a consolidated environment dominated by a few. Such market dominance threatens to undermine the internet’s fundamental benefits as a distributed network in which no single entity has control.

The panel will examine the risks of consolidation throughout the internet’s technology stack such as the impact on complex supply chains that support applications, including cloud provisions, ‘as a service’. It will also explore the potential benefits, for example, when building out essential infrastructure to support faster and cheaper internet services in developing economies, consolidation can create economies of scale that bring the resource-intensive building blocks of the internet economy within the reach of new start-ups and innovators. The panel will provide an interdisciplinary perspective exploring the relationship between consolidation and evolutions in the internet infrastructure as well as unpacking its policy implications.

Andrew Sullivan, President and CEO, Internet Society
Jennifer Cobbe, Research Associate, Department of Computer Science and Technology, University of Cambridge
Jesse Sowell, Assistant Professor, Department of International Affairs, Bush School of Government and Public Service, Texas A&M University

WEBCAST TODAY: @InternetSociety @chathamhouse Panel: Do We Still Trust the Internet? #securitization

by

livestreamToday, Thursday 14 December 2017 the Internet Society and Chatham House will host a panel discussion Do We Still Trust the Internet? in London. Over the past few years, there has been a clear shift towards greater ‘securitization’ of the Internet, where security is less about personal data integrity and network resilience, and more about national security and political control. This is evident through the practice of Internet shutdowns, data localization policies, attacks on the multi-stakeholder model of Internet governance and encryption backdoors. At this event, held in partnership with the Internet Society, participants will discuss the trend towards ‘securitization’, its implications and how to strengthen trust in the Internet, Participants: Marina Kaljurand, Chair, Global Commission on the Stability of Cyberspace; Minister of Foreign Affairs, Estonia (2015-16); Sally Wentworth, Vice President of Global Policy Development, Internet Society; Patricia Lewis, Research Director, International Security Department, Chatham House. Moderator: Emily Taylor, Associate Fellow, International Security and Editor, Journal of Cyber Policy, Chatham House. The event will be webcast live via the Internet Society Livestream Channel, YouTube, and Facebook.
