An additional variation:
We all realize the multistakeholder model created by the
original, mostly technical, Internet community (that
resulted in the success story of the Internet, as well
as the creation of institutions such as ICANN, IETF,
ISOC and the RIRs) is under threat from on one hand increasing
nationalism and isolationism that implies a shift back to
a multilateral/bilateral world order, and the dominance
of the tech giants on the other. Does the ICANN board
have any ideas of initiatives that would help unite the
technical, business and civil society communities that
all need to work together to defend the Internet as
we know it?
