This is the best part of this document. Very good explanation and reasoning.

This is very interesting. For example, the CoE suspended Russia. However, the difference is that what russia is doing goes against the core mandate of CoE. I wonder how a discussion on suspending Russia/Russia sanctioned personel from the ITU or ISO would go. ||sorina||

What is open is not necessarily participatory as we know well.

Sounds like a very exclusive club :)

Not hooked to the UN?

Which society? The society under attack? The society of humankind (in a Kantian sense) which does not exist yet? The society of states? The society composed by the actors that are part of this so called "Internet commuinity'?

Is this a message to ICANN?

Facilitate or make decisions? Is it the role of the Internet community to also decide that a crisis characterises a humanitarian crisis? Would they have the capacity to act ad hoc, or when provoked by other actors with the capacity to acknowledge a crisis as humanitarian?

Who or what is this?

Let's name one multistakeholder decision-making process in a global scale. Net Mundial? ICANN (privately controled) multistakeholder model? If we do not have one active process to decide on simpler things in a MS way, how can we expect to create one to deal with such controversial and politically sensitive issues?

I could contest the narrative of this transition. It seems to me that Internet governance is making its way back. The first IG norms were not created by states. States adopted a hands-off approach. After years of enthusiam with multistakeholderism, there is a view that the state needs to play a much bigger role, not only on regulation (ex. platforms) but also asserting its sovereignty.

Would the mechanism faciliatte (in the sense of providing advice) or actually decide?

It really bothers me to associate 'multistakeholder' and 'sanctions'. I know that the word has been used largely lately, but originally sanctions imply authority. What is the source of authority? I am not yet even going on the mine field of asking what the legitimacy is...

It would be interesting to know if an organization sponsored this initiative, bringing this actors together. Who had the convening power? Is this a spin-off from the GCSC? Certainly, the signatures would indicate so.

Information we mostly know, but good to tackle stress and address issues such as gender. Useful to corroborate some of our practices (breaks, "relaxed" networking opportunities).

Rules for the governance of data is a key motivation of the Chinese government crackdown on companies. While proposals to nationalise companies' datasets have met criticism, an idea that is gaining traction is the possibility to establish a trading system for data between companies. ||JovanK||
