One diagram explains it to a politician. Over the years, I have
used it on several ministers and suddenly you see that change in
their facial expression. Not that I'd imagine any politician to
understand the OSI layers functionality, but they understand that
in a layer cake, when the icing tastes too sweet, it's nothing to
do with the base of the cake itself. So deal with the icing, not
the base. :-)<br>

Suppose I invent an experimental transport that I'm using
over the Internet to communicate with two friends. Is it
infrastructure? Maybe sort of -- it's perhaps
infrastructure for the three of us, but it's really just
mystery garbage to everyone else. Now, suppose that I am
Google and I invent an experimental protocol that I deploy
to browsers that I give to everyone (but which is not yet
standardized) and that lives in an application-layer
protocol. Is it infrastructure? I'd say it's hard to claim
that it is _not_ infrastructure, and so we're already in
deep trouble with the layer model.<br>

I am unprepared to speculate what most people would agree to
on this topic, but I'm rather less certain than you seem to
be. I definitely disagree that some parts of social media
are not infrastructure: the uniquity of "login via
Facebook", "login via Google", and "login via Twitter"
buttons show that _at least part_ of some social media
platforms are definitely infrastructure on the modern
Internet: accounts in unrelated services are using OAUTH
services that depend on features tied to a particular social
media system identity. If that isn't infrastructure to you,
then we're simply talking about different things. <br>

<br>
But that is not, of course, the overwhelmingly dominant way
that people use the Internet. Clubhouse aside, people are
just not setting their alarm clocks to make sure they watch
their favourite Internet show when it comes on. And they're
not being tidy and careful about (in the case we're talking
about) Candian content rules for who made the production and
who were the performers and so on. The traditional solution
that Canada had for this was to use broadcast licensing to
force the Canadian content to be carried into Canadian homes
even if Canadians often didn't want it. The Internet
presents a challenge to that model, because the Internet
doesn't impose a rigid distinction as to who is a "producer"
and who a "consumer". C-10 (and a host of other similar
proposals in other countries) appear to be an attempt to
re-impose those kinds of distinctions, frequently with
implicit or explicit expectations that the network provide
the necessary facilities to enforce the regulatory prefe<br>
rence. To me, that is a threat to the Internet Way of
Networking, and the Internet Society should oppose it.<br>
<br>
I am sad that I appear unable to convince you of this, but I
suppose we will have to agree to disagree.<br>
<br>
