On the relationship between human rights and technical standard-setting processes for new and emerging digital technologies

Governments, the private sector and civil society all have a stake in determining how digital technologies will be designed, implemented and governed. Technological artifacts, including those designed in global standards bodies, have embedded politics and a profound impact on human rights. The Center for Democracy & Technology (CDT) commends the United Nations’ (UN) Office of the High Commissioner on Human Rights (OHCHR) for taking on a year-long consultation on technical standards and human rights. ... This area of work has been ongoing for CDT for many years. We first participated in the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) standardization in 1995 and attended our first IETF meeting in 2001. We have long been actively involved in advocating for human rights through technical standards-setting bodies and educating civil society about the importance of these fora.

An economic perspective on Internet centrality

The IETF met in November 2022 in London. Among the many sessions that were held in that meeting was a session of the Decentralized Internet Infrastructure Research Group (DINRG). The research group’s ambitions are lofty: DINRG will investigate open research issues in decentralizing infrastructure services such as trust management, identity management, name resolution, resource/asset ownership management, and resource discovery.

Is HTTPS Secure? A Look at How Secure HTTPS Is

... When it comes to data security, one of the most trusted and heavily relied upon internet protocols is the hypertext transfer protocol secure. (Note: HTTP secure should not be confused with secure HTTP or S-HTTP, which the IETF listed as an experimental protocol in RFC 2660.) HTTPS is a way to securely transmit data between two parties or entities (e.g., browsers to web servers in traditional SSL/TLS web sessions). It relies on a mix of cryptographic techniques and tools.

Wet signatures cost the pharma industry more than you think

... Meanwhile, the tools and technology to replace slow, manual and often faulty signature processes only continue to improve. Beyond the sometimes painful and expensive basic digital signatures of the 2010s we now have initiatives such as the IETF Supply Chain Integrity, Transparency and Trust (SCITT) working group to easily add digital provenance information to data, and instant verification of data authenticity in one click or less.

Talking TV: Tackling Advanced TV At The IAB Tech Lab

... So, Tony, for those who aren’t familiar with the IAB tech lab, what’s your remit? The IAB Tech Lab was spun out of the IAB almost nine years ago, March of 2014. Our remit is we are the global trade body that sets technical standards for digital advertising across the internet. We differ from the IAB in the sense that the IAB is, as most know it, their remit is the technical standards-setting body. We are akin to think of us as the advertising version of the W3C or the IETF. So, we set the technical standards and steward technical protocols like the RTV Protocol.

Is WHO Planning To Take Control Of Internet?!

... Fact #4 : No One Can “Take Over” The Internet: The Internet is not some kind of organisation that the WHO can “take over”, even if it wants to. The Internet is a global system of networks, literally a “network of networks” connecting the networks in each country to each other. Until today, there is no centralised control of the Internet – no one sets the rules or policies, or even technical implementations. It is up to each country to adopt its own policies, although to ensure interoperability, ICANN manages the DNS, while the IETF helps to standardise and improve technical aspects of the Internet.

Broadband Forum’s UDP speed test delivers on latency promise [news release]

Broadband operators are a step closer to being able to deliver a new standard of connectivity as Broadband Forum releases the next update of its groundbreaking User Datagram Protocol (UDP)-based Speed Test utility. ... “Our open source implementation provides an approach to Internet access measurement with demonstratable accuracy and is an integral part of Broadband Forum specifications. The TR-471 specification was harmonized and developed in coordination with other standards organizations, including ITU-T, IETF and ETSI-STQ/Mobile,” said Al Morton, AT&T and OB-UDPST project co-leader and TR-471 Editor. “UDP is a critical communication protocol for time-sensitive transmissions on the Internet, and the UDPST measurements provide consumer confidence in their service’s support of applications that use UDP.”

Nokia, Singtel Implement IP Transport Slicing Across E2E 5G Network

... To deliver end-to-end slicing, Singtel, Nokia and their network partners worked together to map the slice service attributes across 3GPP and IETF specifications. 3GPP specifies the network slicing functionalities in the 5G radio and core while IETF specifies the IP transport equivalent. With this novel implementation, the network is able to implement end-to-end slice performance and service differentiation.

What Is a Supernet and How Does It Work?

... Supernet addresses the challenges of the “classful” addressing system. While many institutions desired more than 254 hosts from a class C network block, the over 65,000 addresses in the class B block were too much for them. Hence, some companies resorted to using part of the 65,534 addresses in the Class B blocks, which caused a shortage of Class B addresses. With the emergence of new websites, the IETF endorsed the concept of supernet in 1993.

5G, security risks, and a way forward

5G, the fifth-generation standard for broadband cellular networks, will soon appear on our phones if it hasn’t already. Its potential is stunning, faster speed and shorter latency — the gap between data receipt and transfer — which will make it possible to extend the Internet of Things (IoT) to, for instance, self-driving cars whose devices need to communicate commands in fractions of seconds. If smartphones changed our personal lives in ways we could not predict, 5G could change our societies and shape our future beyond our imaginations.

Consent of the Networked: Governing internet intermediaries in the public interest, Rebecca MacKinnon, Vice President, Global Advocacy, Wikimedia Foundation: 14 Mar

Over a decade ago in Consent of the Networked: The Worldwide Struggle for Internet Freedom (Basic Books, 2012), Rebecca MacKinnon outlined a number of challenges in holding the "sovereigns of cyberspace" (global internet intermediaries) accountable to the public interest. Her policy recommendations centered around corporate accountability frameworks, human rights standards for governments and private sector alike, multistakeholder internet governance, and the need for a global culture of digital citizenship and activism. In this talk she reflects on what progress has - and has not - been made across a fast-evolving digital and geopolitical landscape. She draws on her own professional experience as a digital rights advocate, policy entrepreneur, and cross-disciplinary research scholar to suggest some research questions and policy recommendations.

Claims That AI Productivity Will Save Us Are Neither New, nor True: Not only does new tech often result in more work for people, but it also introduces additional kinds of work.

As artificial intelligence (AI) captures the public imagination, while also exhibiting missteps and failures, enthusiasts continue to tout future productivity gains as justification for a lenient approach to its governance. For example, Venture fund ARK Invest predicts that “during the next eight years AI software could boost the productivity of the average knowledge worker by nearly 140%, adding approximately $50,000 in value per worker, or $56 trillion globally.” Accenture claims that “AI has the potential to boost labor productivity by up to 40 percent in 2035…enabling people to make more efficient use of their time.” And OpenAI CEO Sam Altman similarly appeals to time savings on menial tasks like email. But what if promises around AI productivity do not necessarily translate into benefits to society?

Network of the future: 5G Advanced—prepare your network for the next wave of 5G

Telecom is at an interesting juncture, with advanced networks that are reliable, secure, and capable, but still require manual configuration. In the future, networks will behave like an organism that can evolve, learn, and adapt to new situations, challenges, and opportunities. Network resources will be optimized and moved between different parts of the network as needed, while cells and services will work in harmony. Although this vision is yet to be fully realized, the first steps toward it have already been taken. ... The next wave of 5G involves the ongoing development of 5G new radio (NR) and 5G core (5GC) in 3GPP toward 5G Advanced and is poised to unlock new opportunities for service providers. This evolution is designed to solidify the success of 5G systems worldwide and expand the usage of 3GPP technology to support a wider range of use cases and verticals.

Key developments in 2023 will take the industry closer to 5.5G

As the 5G ecosystem continues to expand, there is an urgent need to start preparing the networks for the upcoming network evolution of 5.5G so the telcos continue to provide exceptional customer experience and are able to introduce pathbreaking use cases. There is a growing consensus in the industry that 5.5G is a crucial step to improving network capabilities to provide different kinds of digital services. ... “The year 2023 will be crucial to the development of 5.5G. This year will see the introduction of the 3GPP Release 18 standards. Further, the device ecosystem is also fast maturing and the spectrum is also prepared for ultra-large bandwidth. With such developments, the commercial deployment of 5.5G is likely to start from 2024,” says Gan Bin, Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer of Wireless Solutions at Huawei. He was speaking at the recently concluded Mobile World Congress 2023, the largest telecom event on the planet.
