----- Forwarded message from Tony Rutkowski <trutkowski@NETMAGIC.COM> ----- Date: Fri, 16 Nov 2012 08:22:10 -0500 From: Tony Rutkowski <trutkowski@NETMAGIC.COM> Subject: [WCIT] the WCIT jewels just keep coming Reply-To: Tony Rutkowski <trutkowski@NETMAGIC.COM> To: WCIT@LMLIST.STATE.GOV Organization: NetMagic Associates Cuba just published its proposals as Doc. 26. It's only in Spanish. The Google Translate version is attached. Not unexpectedly, they are riding their WTSA Res. 69 hobbyhorse that was described in my list posting two days ago "the Resolution 69 story." So what Cuba has done is get Sudan to seed the ITU-T discrimination complaint file with numerous exemplars of U.S.* companies complying with the Sudan sanctions, then get the Arab and African States to support and embellish Cuba's Res. 69 at WTSA in Dubai next week. Meanwhile, they have bicycled Doc. 26 into the WCIT to provide a binding into the ITRs. There is a certain political cleverness here. On the other hand, what is rather disingenuous about all of this, is that these folks are pursuing these actions aimed at the U.S. in the name of human rights. Welcome to the ITU! The Russian Internet Regulation doc finally popped up in English. For those interested in an opinion on the only WCIT winning game, see http://www.circleid.com/posts/20121115_the_only_winning_game_at_the_wcit/ enjoy, tony *The Sudan government official apparently didn'trealize that one of the companies was European(Nokia) and that the EU also has sanctions in place. He nonetheless filed the complaint against the U.S. ----- End forwarded message ----- --Lauren-- Lauren Weinstein (lauren@vortex.com): http://www.vortex.com/lauren Co-Founder: People For Internet Responsibility: http://www.pfir.org/pfir-info Founder: - Network Neutrality Squad: http://www.nnsquad.org - PRIVACY Forum: http://www.vortex.com/privacy-info - Data Wisdom Explorers League: http://www.dwel.org - Global Coalition for Transparent Internet Performance: http://www.gctip.org Member: ACM Committee on Computers and Public Policy Lauren's Blog: http://lauren.vortex.com Google+: http://vortex.com/g+lauren / Twitter: http://vortex.com/t-lauren Tel: +1 (818) 225-2800 / Skype: vortex.com _______________________________________________ nnsquad mailing list http://lists.nnsquad.org/mailman/listinfo/nnsquad
