  The Self Governing Internet: Complete with no updated whistleblower process, at least until June 2017. At that time the process will still be an internally reviewed phone call-in process, just more trustworthy than the phone call-in process is now… wait, so if the process isn’t 100% trustworthy now… and the new process won’t be ready for 9 more months…
  
  https://community.icann.org/display/WEIA/Transparency
  
  CCWG_WS2_Transp Report.docx
  
  What effective whistleblower process has any kind of review by those within the same entity? Doesn’t that defeat the purpose of the term “whistleblower”. Why wait 9 months to have that process completed in the first place? Why not have the whistleblower process ready on day 1 (Oct 1)?
  
  I’ve requested answers to these questions from those in government at at ICANN who should know the answers, I was provided the links above as their response, but that’s it, there is zero ability on behalf of the multistakeholder community to answer any of the questions you see in this comment. If the U.S. media was acting as the 4th estate maybe they could access their unique investigative abilities and verify the process.

@ISOCNY joins coalition of groups supporting the completion of the #IANA Transition #IANAsteward @CenDemTech
The Internet Society’s New York Chapter (ISOC-NY) has joined a coalition of groups supporting the completion of the IANA Transition. This, along with similar letters from ISOC’s Kathy Brown, another coalition, and more, amount to practically unanimous approval of the transfer plan from the Internet community. This outpouring is the result of some possible bumps in the road.

Some background:
After 18 years of steady progress since the formation of ICANN, and two years of intense negotiation within the multistakeholder community to come up with a plan, on Aug 12 2016 the NTIA declared that it intends to let the IANA Functions Contract expire on Sep 30 2016, “barring any significant impediment”. However, a significant impediment may indeed possibly arise in the form of congressional opposition. On the Senate side this is led by former presidential candidate Ted Cruz who, speaking on Sep 8 2016, vociferously spoke against it.
(transcript)
Cruz made several spurious claims – pretty much the opposite of reality – about the implications of the transfer, for instance, about the power of governments to control global content via ICANN, or that ICANN would leave U.S. jurisdiction. This prompted ICANN to issue a refuting FAQ.

Also on September 8, a bill opposing the transfer was introduced in the House, and several other prominent pols sent a letter to the DoC & DoJ raising anti-trust, jurisdiction, and accountability concerns. Cruz’s solution was to call for “continuing and strengthening” financial constraints imposed on the NTIA in 2015 via a continuing resolution, in effect de-funding the transfer in the imminent Appropriations Bill. If such were to happen, the only way the transition would go through would be via an Obama veto, and a resulting government shutdown. Something that did happen in the battle over Obamacare in 2013, but not seen as a likely prospect in 2016, despite it precipitating a Republican pratfall last time round.

However, transcendentally, whether such financial constraints do even in fact prevent the transfer taking place appear negated by a GAO report issued on Monday! The NTIA’s Larry Strickling immediately responded “We thank the GAO for its thorough analysis of the property implications of the IANA transition. We are pleased that GAO concluded that the transition does not involve a transfer of U.S. government property requiring Congressional approval.”

The Senate Judiciary Committee will hold a hearing – chaired by Cruz – Protecting Internet Freedom: Implications of Ending U.S. Oversight of the Internet at 10am EDT Wednesday September 14 2016. There should be a webcast available on that link, and also audio via CapitolHearings.org.

  I have concerns about the US ceding control of the Internet. But, when a pile of f!lth like Ted Cruz opposes an issue, it means the issue needs our full support.

  As you can see from the hearing, no one mentioned any whistle-blower process at ICANN past, present or future. Anyone who thinks that the so-called post transition “checks and balances” processes approved and presented to Congress by the ICANN-accountability working group will stand up to the sophisticated methods of intimidation and bribery used by foreign intelligence services is merely pretending to believe in a world of international human rights and respect that does not yet exist. A world of international human rights and respect may one day exist, and at that time a transition could be considered in my opinion. I would recommend at this time that any allusion to a fragmented internet is nothing more than a bluff on behalf of those foreign governments pretending like that would be somehow a beneficial alternative to the current status quo for their economies, and lastly I recommend that the functions of ICANN be transferred to an office in the Pentagon under military supervision, until such time as a world of international human rights and respect occurs. Globalists who benefit from globalism financially willfully promote that the bluffs of foreign governments are somehow worth worrying about, such as the UN gaining control of ICANN. The U.S. has veto power at the UN, so that argument is moot. Stop falling for the bluffs of foreign governments, pretending that those bluffs represent real risks to the U.S. so you can further your globalist agenda. Its like if you owned something that you wanted to lose and the first person who asked you for it you were like, “oh i better give it up because this is the way the world is going now and if I don’t it’s a risk.”. The ICANN whistle-blower process basically relies on some hero in ICANN discovering undue foreign influence and then leaking that to wikileaks. There is no guarantee that the GAC influencer within ICANN on behalf of the American people will have America’s interests in mind, more likely it will be someone put there to continue selling out America to the false idea that globalism as a governance model, governed by people far away locally unaccountable. Globalism works only as an economic and travel facilitator as it should be limited to, but power-seekers know no such reasonable limits, although there are some signs , as with Brexit and the good work of Ted Cruz that there are many people willing to argue for limits on globalism to prevent increasingly unaccountable non-localized government, the ultimate corruption.

VIDEO: #IANA, #ICANN – what it is, why you should care, and what you can do. A bottom-up primer. @CivicHall
On Friday December 4 2015 the Internet Society New York Chapter (ISOC-NY) held an informal discussion IANA, ICANN, – what it is, why you should care, and what you can do at Civic Hall in NYC. Special guest and presenter was Olivier Crépin-Leblond, former Chair of ICANN’s At-Large Advisory Committee. He gave an update on the current IANA transition and the associated ICANN accountability process, and then talked about why and how Internet users can protect their interests and the common good.

Perspectives on the #IANA Stewardship Transition Principles @InternetSociety
[By Sally Wentworth – Internet Society VP,Global Policy Development]

As the IANA Coordination Group (ICG) gets set to release its call for public comments on a combined proposal to transition the stewardship of the IANA functions, it is critical that we understand how the IANA stewardship principles as well as the IANA functions fit into the broader context of the Internet’s operations and history.

Back on 14 March 2014, the U.S. Government National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) announced its intent to transition stewardship responsibility for the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) functions to the global, multi-stakeholder community. It asked the global Internet community to develop a plan that will ensure performance of the IANA functions continue to adhere to fundamental Internet principles after the transition.

In the coming weeks and months, as stakeholders continue to deliberate on accountability mechanisms, discussions will now shift to a consideration of whether the outcome of all this work is in line with the principles outlined in NTIA’s March 2014 announcement.

In considering the principles, or so-called “NTIA criteria”, it’s crucial that we see these not as the product of the United States government but rather as the fundamental characteristics that have enabled the Internet to serve as a platform for seemingly limitless innovation around the globe. For the long-term growth and stability of the Internet, the administration of the IANA functions must continue to adhere to those principles, which are grounded in the history, origins and design of the Internet.

At the Internet Society, we’ve done some thinking about these principles and have put together a thought-piece that discusses the origin and operational relevance of these principles to the IANA functions. Our main goal was to show how they are reflective of broader Internet principles which have been adopted and embedded through years of international consensus.

Download “Perspectives on the IANA Stewardship Transition Principles”

The purpose of this document is twofold: first, it is to provide some global context for these principles. Second, and perhaps more importantly, it is to demonstrate that these principles are ingrained in the network’s architecture.

As we all begin to step back from the drafting work and look at the bigger picture, I hope this piece is a useful contribution to a discussion about how the IANA stewardship transition fits into the broader narrative and consensus about globalization, openness and security/stability of the Internet going forward.

Cross Community Working Group (CWG) draft proposal on #IANA #DNS transition #IANASteward
The Cross Community Working Group (CWG) tasked with developing to produce a consolidated transition proposal for the elements of the IANA Functions relating to the Domain Name System (DNS) has now published its draft transition proposal for public comment. While emphasizing that the proposal is “interrelated and interdependent ” on results of the Cross Community Working Group on Enhancing ICANN Accountability (“CCWG-Accountability”), the group proposes the following elements for the transition:
- The current operational performance of the IANA Naming Functions is generally satisfactory to its direct customers, and the community generally believes that the current NTIA oversight arrangement has been successful in ensuring the accountability of the IANA Functions Operator in that role. As such, the objective of the CWG is largely to replicate the roles played by the NTIA in the execution and oversight of the IANA Naming Functions as faithfully as possible, while acknowledging that certain changes will be required to contractual terms and arrangements that are particular to contracts entered into with the U.S. government.
- The CWG does not believe that there is a reason to transition the IANA Naming Functions outside of ICANN concurrent with the IANA Stewardship Transition. Maintaining this part of the status quo implies that the new arrangements post-transition should provide the possibility of replacing ICANN as the IANA Functions Operator at a later date, including by means of a Request for Proposal (RFP) or other tender process.
- The proposed replacement solution should not seek to create another ICANN-like structure with associated costs and complexities.
- The proposal should not seek to replace the role of the ICANN multi-stakeholder community with respect to policy development for the Names Community, nor to affect existing TLD policies or how they are currently applied by the IANA Functions Operator.
- The existing separation between ICANN as a policy body and ICANN as the IANA Functions Operator needs to be reinforced and strengthened.
The group outlines a 4 part structure:
1. Contract Co. – This primary function of this entity (likely a non-profit corporation) is to be signatory to the contract with the IANA Functions Operator. This entity should be lightweight and have little or no staff.
2. Multistakeholder Review Team (MRT) – The MRT would be a multi-stakeholder body with formally selected representatives from all of the relevant communities (exact composition TBD). The operation of the MRT would be based on the concept of maximum public transparency. The responsibilities of the MRT will include:
  - Developing the detailed contract terms for the agreement between Contract Co. and the IANA Functions Operator, based on the key contract terms proposed as part of this proposal and set forth as Annex 3
  - Making key decisions for Contract Co. (e.g., whether or not to enter into a rebidding (RFP) process for the operation of the IANA Naming Functions)
  - Conducting the IANA Functions Operator Budget Review
  - Addressing any escalation issues raised by the Customer Standing Committee (CSC) including the possibility of engaging in enforcement
  - Performing certain elements of administration (including periodic performance reviews) currently set forth in the IANA Functions Contract and currently being carried out by the NTIA
  - Managing a re-contracting or rebidding (RFP) process for the operation of the IANA Functions, both as an enforcement option and as part of a regular rebidding procedure
  The CWG is in the process of discussing whether there is an additional enforcement role for the MRT related to policy implementation by the IANA Functions Operator; specifically, whether the MRT should be able to commence a proceeding before the Independent Appeals Panel.
3. Customer Standing Committee (CSC) – While the exact composition is still to be determined, the CSC would primarily be made up of a number of representatives of registry operators, including ccTLD and gTLD registries. Input from the CSC would feed into and inform the work of the MRT. It is possible that the CSC would also include additional individuals with relevant expertise and/or liaisons (or representatives) from other
  SO/ACs. The CSC would:
  - Work with the MRT to establish Service Levels and Performance Indicators for the performance of the IANA Naming Functions
  - Receive reports from the IANA Functions Operator including regular performance reports.
  - Review these reports against established service levels and escalate any significant issues to the MRT
4. Independent Appeals Panel (IAP) – The CWG recommends that all IANA actions which affect the Root Zone or Root Zone WHOIS database be subject to an independent and binding appeals panel. The Appeals Mechanism should also cover any policy implementation actions that affect the execution of changes to the Root Zone File or Root Zone WHOIS and how relevant policies are applied. This need not be a permanent body, but rather could be handled the same way as commercial disputes are often resolved, through the use of a binding arbitration process using an independent arbitration organization (e.g., ICDR, ICC, AAA) or a standing list of qualified people under rules promulgated by such an organization.
The CWG requests public comments on on some specific aspects of future root management process, including NTIA involvement, as well as an “alternative” proposal for ICANN itself to take over the IANA functions. Deadline for comments is December 22 2014

.@ICANN Report: Overview and History of the #IANA Functions #ianasteward
ICANN’s Security and Stability Advisory Committee (SSAC) has issued a report “Overview and History of the IANA Functions“. The report describes the activities included in the IANA Functions contract as well as the functions performed under the IETF MoU in order to establish a baseline of understanding for those interested in how the upper-most level of the Internet’s system of unique identifiers is managed. It focuses primarily on the IANA Functions contract, but is intended to describe all of the activities related to the IANA Functions as they are currently performed, including those that lie outside of the IANA Functions contract.

Topics:
- How will NTIA collect and assess proposals? Has a process been determined? Is there a timeline in place for a decision?
- Does transition of the IANA functions out of NTIA have implications for national security?
- How will NTIA ensure that any transition is smooth and does not affect the daily functioning of the Internet?
- What will be the result if NTIA does not receive a proposal that satisfies the criteria it set forth? Does NTIA plan to exercise the automatic option for renewal on the IANA contract if a satisfactory proposal is not received?
- What sort of multi-stakeholder community would be the ideal replacement for NTIA’s role in the IANA functions?
- What safeguards will be in place to prevent a future change that would allow for governments to seize control?
- What oversight role should Congress play to ensure a successful outcome.
- What will be the practical impact of this transition on Internet users and businesses that utilize the Internet for commerce?

  Is it not too soon to give up a strategic asset such as this and hand over control to another country or entity controlled by a country hostile to the United States and freedom. I see far reaching issues for national security. This process may have been in the works for some time; however, it is short sighted and NOT a viable option. We should not be taking this action, regardless of what the “rest of the world” says.

Internet Technical Leaders Welcome #IANA Globalization Progress @NTIAgov @InternetSociety
On Friday March 14 2014 the U.S. National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) announced that it had invited ICANN to make a multistakeholder-derived proposal to take over responsibility for the “IANA functions“, i.e. management of the Internet’s root zone, when the current contract ends in 2015. In response Internet technical organizations, including the Internet Society, issued the following statement:
Internet Technical Leaders Welcome IANA Globalization Progress

The leaders of the Internet technical organizations responsible for coordination of the Internet infrastructure (IETF, IAB, RIRs, ccTLD ROs, ICANN, ISOC, and W3C), welcome the US Government’s announcement of the suggested changes related to the IANA functions contract.

The roles on policy development processes of the Internet technical organizations and ICANN’s role as administrator of the IANA functions, remain unchanged

The transition of the US Government stewardship has been envisaged since the early days of IANA functions contract. This transition is now feasible due to the maturity of the Internet technical organizations involved in performing their respective roles related to the IANA functions, and ICANN will facilitate a global, multi-stakeholder process to plan for the transition.

The strength and stability of the IANA functions within the above organizations (which make up the Internet technical community) are critical to the operation of the Internet. The processes around the IANA functions have always been carefully specified in the communities that our organizations represent. The IANA functions are faithfully administered by ICANN. We are committed to continuing our proven, community-driven processes as we engage in this transition. Our communities are already considering proposals to progress the transition.

Our organizations are committed to open and transparent multi-stakeholder processes. We are also committed to further strengthening our processes and agreements related to the IANA functions, and to building on the existing organizations and their roles. The Internet technical community is strong enough to continue its role, while assuming the stewardship function as it transitions from the US Government.
