Well said. <br>
We, the users, need more active engagement from all these
organizations (and others, too), and I am hopeful the chapters can
use whatever is available (including from the signed organizations)
to help change their national policies become more
Internet-friendly.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Montevideo Statement on the Future of
Internet Cooperation<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">[Montevideo, Uruguay – 7 October 2013] --
The leaders of organizations responsible for coordination of
the Internet technical infrastructure globally have met in
Montevideo, Uruguay, to consider current issues affecting the
future of the Internet.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Internet and World Wide Web have
brought major benefits in social and economic development
worldwide. Both have been built and governed in the public
interest through unique mechanisms for global multistakeholder
Internet cooperation, which have been intrinsic to their
success. The leaders discussed the clear need to continually
strengthen and evolve these mechanisms, in truly substantial
ways, to be able to address emerging issues faced by
stakeholders in the Internet.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In this sense:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">•They reinforced the importance of globally
coherent Internet operations, and warned against Internet
fragmentation at a national level. They expressed strong
concern over the undermining of the trust and confidence of
Internet users globally due to recent revelations of pervasive
monitoring and surveillance.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">•They identified the need for ongoing
effort to address Internet Governance challenges, and agreed
to catalyze community-wide efforts towards the evolution of
global multistakeholder Internet cooperation.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">•They called for accelerating the
globalization of ICANN and IANA functions, towards an
environment in which all stakeholders, including all
governments, participate on an equal footing.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">•They also called for the transition to
IPv6 to remain a top priority globally. In particular Internet
content providers must serve content with both IPv4 and IPv6
services, in order to be fully reachable on the global
Internet.
