*The ALAC supports the proposed path forward for the ATRT3, while stating
the consideration of how to streamline specific reviews to make them more
effective and impactful is a low priority item for ATRT3. The
ALAC encourages active community participation in formulating any
recommendations in organizational reviews, and states that specific reviews
operating standards should take a minimalist approach.*

because they hold it is an essential step for ICANN to deploy a
tiered-access model adequately. In addition, the ALAC recommends that ICANN

Union's (EU) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), noting them in the
statement.*

Outreach and Engagement at ICANN63

The Subcommittee on Outreach and Engagement (SC on O&E) met in Barcelona,
with all Co-Chairs of each of the five RALO regions, to discuss upcoming
strategies and opportunities.

*Members (L-R): Glenn McKnight, Ali Almeshal, Daniel Nanghaka (Chair of the
SC on O&E, also pictured right), Matthias Hudobnik, Maritza Aguero and
Maureen Hilyard.*

*Joint At-Large/NCUC Outreach Session*

*Alan Greenberg*


*Milton Mueller and Oliver Crepin-Leblond*

The Joint Outreach Session was very well attended, and the SC on O&E made
sure all attendees received a RALO-specific brochure. The session included
ICANN Newcomers, Fellows and NextGen. The aim of these recurring outreach
sessions is to help these groups assimilate into ICANN, ask questions and
network.

Update from John Laprise, SMWG Chair

*The SMWG held two Breakfast Tweet-Ups during ICANN63.*

ICANN63 came and went as a success for the social media working group. We
held Breakfast Tweet-Ups on the first two days to meet each other in
person, coordinate tactics and review strategy. This paid dividends as the
At-Large handle consistently trended on the ICANN63 hashtag. Special thanks
go to Evin for her tireless staff efforts.

Looking towards Kobe, we have a lot of work ahead of us. I want to work
with and cultivate closer ties with the RALO social media leads. We have
social media related review items to complete. Finally we have a series of
requests for content from other working groups seeking to get the word out.

Don't hibernate this winter! Get busy with social media. Follow ICANN

*Report from Adrian Schmidt, ARIN Fellow*
email: aschmi at gmail.com


After a successful 3 days of NANOG meetings, ARIN started right away with
the Newcomers Orientation. The meeting was conducted in a large room, and
it was great to see most of the ARIN Fellows and ARIN Staff there, as well
as the presentation from the Board. Attendants learned a little more, as
the presentations were clear on how the process of development of policy
works for ARIN, and also a clear agenda on what was going to happen over
the next two days. Then, Sean Hopkins guided those in the room through the
process of policy development, which was a very interesting and fast-paced
presentation.

Discussion on policy started on Thursday, around 11am. Different policies
in different stages of the process development process (PDP) were
discussed; one interesting note is that discussion was a lot shorter than
the allotted time. In the evening, the election process was delineated, and
the candidates gave their speeches for the Advisory Council, Board of
Trustees and for the NRO Number Council. After that, the report on Software
Development was presented, with details on actual and future projects
within ARIN systems. After more reports and discussions of policy, there
was a report on the official launch of the new ARIN website (October 2018).
The day concluded with a social at a nice location, where participants were
invited to try delicacies from different parts of Canada.

Last Friday started with a good report on the NRO, followed by an NRO ASO
(Address Supporting Organization) and the IANA Review committee. That was
followed with a CTO report on the latest developments from ARIN, including
the new website
<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001tq-TaJXXZHltJW2aaYDG3aZlluq4cflLQJDyNkHHJJ8bIm2rBW11HPTaXaZzmv0MMCjLnNdEkwcJRfih6ed7Z8lkCMBA7bV7t4UNb5TsNgFseX5fNmrvBvKM7F1S5c0CqXZtNj_9zdAW-oUsaPpbow8BQ0Y5HlML1d7NAKuUicxmIhQG1mL9iGsJ-H-qtneoRBjFTAedVKvmMwNRvgq_aYJ5utLcF3m8woc1K5Fn6BVf6L4cwPo6A-cPRUxarSz81N6_hbVa4r4IpTDBmOkqaEzJmvR0NeHqaAwyjO2pPHL7OdGbfYHcfwJCt9VPPmpvauokj7g3_lY9i25MNZf95g==&c=QheOrCPmw-uKzEj28hthGlh7GWpDHWF8QC69eDAz1pBU2BJGbmgA_g==&ch=otXTkWnO5hs-UEPnEZqlxXWlEEksms2q-wgoZrlYSPqmM42zcXl4XQ==>
.

It was interesting to note that in spite of the room being full of
participants, there seemed to be little passion or interest in most of the
topics and policies presented in ARIN42, with the exception of ARIN-2017-12
(requiring new POC validation upon reassignment).

Get to Know Your Fellow ALS:
Telecommunities Canada

*Marita Moll, NARALO ALAC Member and Telecommunities Canada Representative.*

Telecommunities Canada (TC) was formed during a meeting in Ottawa, Canada
in the summer of 1994. What began as a group of Free-Nets has evolved into
a loose alliance of community networks and other organizations as well as
individuals acting together as a community of practice for sharing and
advocating the experience of community online.

TC is a registered non-profit community organization whose mandate is:

   - To ensure that all Canadians are able to participate in
   community-based communications and electronic information services by
   promoting and supporting local community network initiatives.
   - To represent and promote the Canadian community networking movement at
   the national and international level
   <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001tq-TaJXXZHltJW2aaYDG3aZlluq4cflLQJDyNkHHJJ8bIm2rBW11HPHVzEC_pwLXGYkWrMer0CFGnuMIBgWpxOSU1Kui-IzeYG1SO3TI8xX98_n7m0b0qgaM33WbebvycH5csfcAB23MxfDxTXnIjskXiX2JMKAFJmlWJmdIKe4e4sGcLYVQWj6BAGmRri3hL5g64KZVWAykDKHCmKN4dnWjz7WR2F_a8TLiNwLj_GTcO_dftoqtITHnj_PDh15ntB7K90u8YNC90TTqgD-Yg-_XbSINSWoU7V449SfRcfBYbn2krMqKFbi7Vim6AtgW8yB_VTSlxR4=&c=QheOrCPmw-uKzEj28hthGlh7GWpDHWF8QC69eDAz1pBU2BJGbmgA_g==&ch=otXTkWnO5hs-UEPnEZqlxXWlEEksms2q-wgoZrlYSPqmM42zcXl4XQ==>
   .

At the national level, TC has intervened in many legislative and regulatory
initiatives over the years - sometimes submitting comments, sometimes
supporting member initiatives, always supporting positions derived from end
user needs and perspectives.

On the international front, TC representatives helped establish NARALO,
which was the last of five global regions within ICANN At-Large to form,
thus completing ICANN's intended international infrastructure for an
At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC). NARALO officially became part of ICANN
at a signing ceremony in San Juan, Puerto Rico on June 28, 2007. Former TC
Boardmember, Darlene Thompson was a member of the NARALO Secretariat. Then
TC President, Gareth Shearman, held one of the two formal NARALO positions
on ALAC. TC president, Marita Moll, assumed this responsibility at the
ICANN63 meeting in Barcelona.

TC has also intervened in American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN)
policy development process regarding the introduction of IPV6 and the
impact of this process on community networks, recently contributing to a
definition of community networks at ARIN.

In our statement, "Beyond the Information Society
<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001tq-TaJXXZHltJW2aaYDG3aZlluq4cflLQJDyNkHHJJ8bIm2rBW11HPHVzEC_pwLXZTJ_GKI3zhoRksfZpm19My1o-vmk_lOJ7DFue11IXgzgehLSEx9zNg28pY2o48QS9lnzxkk3nG3mM8CVc06gaCQMhtpkSWJ0H_AOKsZdqzR4YoLiDyT8RDTiPI3X4FJ8IqAHkyN-dadLhPQOePrL7Lv5sqELDpRECyfqfdgjBvt4k9_hudxQWPxneJl1GcvcY94hyT2kYBvAeodXp-VHiK0TVodFPQDtC20ghGaFzv8XRR0_0WAYc69CGqgOYV_IZhfq6ddmY5EdFmP3zssHukRcYS0Kcz5x&c=QheOrCPmw-uKzEj28hthGlh7GWpDHWF8QC69eDAz1pBU2BJGbmgA_g==&ch=otXTkWnO5hs-UEPnEZqlxXWlEEksms2q-wgoZrlYSPqmM42zcXl4XQ==>"
presented during a 2005 civil society conference seeking Canadian input for
WSIS II, TC argued for a world which enables communities to access and use
the resources they need, including electronic resources, to improve their
condition and position in a globalized context. This includes sustained
financial and program resources that support community-based digital
initiatives.

In a very short period of time, new technologies have changed how we work
and how we play. Unfortunately, policy and practice have not always moved
in lock step. We continue to seek opportunities to help reconnect the two.

Special Article
Regulating Social Media: A Multistakeholder "Content Congress", by David
Morar

*David Morar, NARALO Member.*

You do not have to be a fan of conspiracy theories to worry about the
precedent that Apple, YouTube and Facebook set by banning Alex Jones and
Infowars.com. Jones complained that it was like "something out of '1984'',
as he does not know how to rebut Facebook's decision. The company does not
divulge how it makes these decisions, for fear that users would
deliberately push boundaries.

Jones is not alone in being concerned with the seemingly authoritarian
power of tech giants to decide what gets removed in an opaque
content-moderation process. As de facto arbiters of speech and access to
audiences, companies with such consolidated publishing power have unique
responsibilities to be transparent with the public.

Instead of making decisions in private isolation, companies would do better
by engaging one another and their users to shape content-moderation
policies in a more transparent and consistent way. We propose a
deliberative body, a "content congress" where stakeholders - including
companies, civil society groups and even constituencies of end users -
could hash out best practices, air grievances, and offer rebuttals.

How would it work? Multistakeholder initiatives take varied forms, and we
are not advocating for a specific one. We offer multistakeholderism because
simple calls for government regulation or self regulation are not enough -
the public wants input. Such a body should not be a legally binding
authority but an arena for transparent coordination, public representation
and human engagement in an industry dominated by algorithms and machines.
Companies want feedback; government wants more insight into
decision-making; and people want to be heard.

The content congress should have issue-based working groups, which would
proactively or reactively address complicated use cases. For instance, how
do you address videos depicting unjust violence or death? Facebook faced
backlash for censoring videos of police brutality that resulted in
on-camera death posted by social justice groups. How do you curb
pornography, without censoring images of female breasts in instances of
breastfeeding or health advocacy?

And what should the protocol be when social media stars inspire violent
trolls among their followers? A content congress could facilitate a
transparent process in handling Jones, whose fans harassed the parents of
Sandy Hook victims, or Milo Yiannopoulos, whose followers hacked actress
Leslie Jones's website and harassed her until she left Twitter. Given the
public nature of a content congress, Messrs. Jones and Yiannpoulos would
probably have a say too.

For private companies to be part of such a loose organisation might sound
strange, but there is a precedent. The Internet Corporation for Assigned
Names and Numbers (ICANN), a nonprofit governance body, maintains the
functions of the Domain Name System (DNS) through multistakeholder decision
making. Early Internet advocates rejected direct government control and
sought a more open and inclusive way to make policy; ICANN, with its
sometimes slow or complex decision-making, was the answer. Stakeholders
include businesses, nonprofits, activists and governments.

Another example is the Global Network Initiative, an international
nonprofit dedicated to Internet freedom and privacy rights. Drawing from
the expertise of stakeholders ranging from the Harvard Berkman-Klein Center
to the Committee to Protect Journalists, it helps companies like Facebook
and Vodafone resist government requests to surveil or censor users and
their communications.

Beyond tech, there are similar examples in the finance industry's
coordination to fix systemic issues and avoid disas
