Sorting out the past 36 hours at the WCIT

Anyone following the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) World Conference on International Telecommunications (WCIT) over the last 36 hours knows this has become a moment of high drama around the International Telecommunications regulations (ITRs) and the role of the ITU for internet-related issues.

Unfortunately, that is probably the only thing anyone can say for certain. Even the member states on the ground have expressed confusion on critical matters, such as whether the widely reported “vote” on a resolution that included express language relating to the internet was really a vote or not.

Amicus Briefs Counter Verizon's First Amendment Argument in Verizon v. FCC

Last week Public Knowledge and the Open Internet Coalition submitted an “intervenor’s brief” in support of the open internet rules in Verizon v. FCC. Along with our brief, other allied parties including Columbia Law Professor Tim Wu, the Center for Democracy and Technology, and several former FCC commissioners offered “friend of the court” briefs, or “amicus briefs,” in favor of the FCC.

Verizon claims it has the First Amendment right to edit, prioritize, or block its customers’ access to the internet. Verizon’s First Amendment argument plays an interesting role in the case, to which each responded in the following three briefs.

Public Knoweldge Joins Intervenors to Protect Open Internet Rules in Court

Contact: Sherwin Siy 202-861-0020 (o)

For Immediate Release
DATE: November 16, 2012

Public Knowledge Joins Intervenors to Protect Open Internet Rules in Court

Background: Public Knowledge joined with technology companies and state consumer advocates to defend the FCC's open Internet rules against a challenge by Verizon. The brief, on behalf of a coalition of technology companies (including Amazon, eBay, DISH Network, Google, Paypal, Skype, Netflix, and others), Vonage, Public Knowledge, and the National Association of State Utility Consumer Advocates ("NASUCA"), intervenes in the case, saying that the rules protect them from anticompetitive discrimination and promote broadband usage and deployment.

The following statement may be attributed to Sherwin Siy, Vice President of Legal Affairs:

Public Knowledge Joins Intervenors in Case Supporting Open Internet Rules

Today, Public Knowledge joined with technology companies and state consumer advocates to defend the FCC's open Internet rules against a challenge by Verizon and MetroPCS. The brief for these intervenors was prepared by the Open Internet Coalition (which includes Amazon, eBay, DISH Network, Facebook, Google, Paypal, Skype, Netflix, and others), Vonage, Public Knowledge, and the National Association of State Utility Consumer Advocates ("NASUCA").

At stake are the FCC's open Internet rules, designed to protect net neutrality. Verizon has raised a host of arguments against them, saying, for instance, that the FCC lacks the authority to issue the rules, and that the rules infringe upon telephone companies' rights of free speech.

What the Election Means for the Internet

After nearly two years of debates, never-ending commercials, donation solicitations and ever-present polling, Election Day is over and the results are in.  As many had predicted, the balance of government has not changed significantly.  Democrats will retain the Presidency and control of the Senate, and Republicans will continue to control the House, albeit by a slightly smaller margin than before.
