Hello<br><br>I have posted the following comments:<br><br><p>The four scenarios may not be strictly compartmentalized with the
set of features as shown, instead the features may overlap, get mixed
up to form an altogether new scenario. For instance, the Internet Model
may largely prevail, Open Access might continue to exist, yet there
could be censorship to a certain extent and content control. The
features shown in four quadrants may not be mutually exclusive.</p>
<p>Each of the scenario described appear unnatural in some form or another. </p>
<p>Common Pool Scenario: This is the most positive of all scenarios,
that is framed around the Internet Model. Even this scenario is
visualized to deteriorate over time. </p>
<p>” major incumbents, … for the Future Network … resolving known
issues through hard-fought negotiations between powerful industry
players. And: nothing happened…. each network’s implementation varied
just-ever-so-slightly from their competitors’, so interoperation failed
at all … developed ugly-but-functional approaches to critical problems
… the Next Big Thing. It wasn’t pretty; it didn’t flash; it wasn’t
intellectually or aesthetically impressive. It just worked…. There was
much upheaval, wailing and gnashing of teeth, appeal to governments for
redress (or at least a bailout), some failed, some adjusted, and many
applied the newest economic fad, acquiring the customers and assets of
the new entrants through corporate “leveraged lease-to-buy” options.</p>
<p>Boutique Networks Scenario: “networks to begin to separate
themselves into smaller stand-alone segments” Would it be segments so
small and too many s to call the networks Boutique Networks? And this
scenario is portrayed as something that would happen due to Tier 1
operators micro-managing IPV4 addresses ! This scenario is also shown
as arising due to some countries opting out of ICANN’s root and DNS,
and some governments following their own systems of addressing. These
situations are imaginable, while governments taking their countries
‘off-net’ appear far fetched. And IETF to be signed over to hobbyists
and HAM radio users ??? Funny.</p>
<p>The Boutique Networks Scenario nowhere talks about National control
of the domain name space through ccTLDs nor about the impact of IDNs
that might divide the Internet along language lines. IDNs and content
in a certain language might tend to shut people of other languages away</p>
<p>Moats and Drawbridges Scenario is very well described, and it is
this scenario that requires the Internet Community to act to prevent.</p>
<p>Porous Garden Scenario: Closed Devices: May be. But multiple
Internet platforms?? Like multiple, incompatible Operating Systems?
Strange, this scenario imagines highly profitable business models for
platform vendors, operators and developers while networks would be
floating in space, unconnected and unable to agree on ways to share
access to each other’s revenue streams. How could both happen at the
same time?</p>
<p>A good exercise out of which better scenarios could have been visualized by a larger team of thinkers.<br></p><br clear="all">Sivasubramanian Muthusamy<br>Blog: <a href="http://isocmadras.blogspot.com">http://isocmadras.blogspot.com</a><br>

Dear Veni and members:<br>
<div dir="ltr">Concern: <br>Whenever I see the comments, opinions, proposals are technical side and little or nothing is seen from the point of content, which is ultimately what users see and observe. <br>In my humble opinion as a communicator, prospects can go to control if we do not stop and analyze what surf the net, because the technique is almost already established. <br>
Thanks</div>

<br>Dear Chapter delegates, <br>What worries me, is that 10 days after you published this email, there are no comments there, except mine. This is not good, and does not speak well for our model of contributions to ISOC. <br>
Please, visit the site, register, comment. <br>There is a lot of work to be done, and if we are not part of it today, tomorrow ISOC may take another decision, which might be not as good as it could be - if we would have helped!<br>
<br>Thanks!<br><br>
