The session discussed various perspectives on the evolution of global Internet governance. Some national governments and international institutions believe greater government regulation and oversight is needed to replace the current multi-stakeholder structures. However, others argue that the increasing ubiquity of the Internet has also been accompanied by cybercrime, spam and privacy breaches, so the role of public policy in this area is critical. Speakers assessed different proposals for how Internet governance should evolve, taking into account technology trends and principles as well as the changing role of the Internet as a critical global communications infrastructure.
