UN Web Resolution Is Little Reported — A draft of telecommunication regulations was passed, Dec. 11, at the International Telecommunications Union’s (ITU) World Conference held in Dubai.
The ITU is the United Nations specialized agency for information and communications technology.
Most of it seems pretty reasonable with things such as giving priority to distress communications, limiting the ability to tax international messaging to the customers in that country, requiring transparency in pricing and encouraging member states to take steps to prevent the propagation of spam bulk emails.
On the other hand, there are those concerned that it sets a precedent for UN expansion regarding internet governance.
We are inclined to share those concerns.
