For two decades, the Internet Governance Forum (IGF) has provided a platform for collaboration and cooperation between Internet stakeholders and driven tangible progress in the Internet’s resilience, reach, and trust.

Together with ICANN, we take a look at the global impact of the IGF and highlight why maintaining a collaborative approach to Internet governance is so crucial: https://www.internetsociety.org/resources/doc/2025/footprints-of-20-years-of-the-internet-governance-forum/ #IGF2025

In the five-way race among the bureaucratic processes I'm currently ensnared in, Canada has taken an early lead. There is no action as of yet, but they have sent a tracking number which allows me to confirm the lack of action, so they are the current front-runner.

As a token of this early win, a red tape sculpture in the shape of a maple leaf will be sent to Ottawa as soon as the Canada Post strike is resolved.🇨🇦

It seems odd to say "Happy Pride" during a period when trans folks are fearing for their lives in many places, when the funding for HIV vaccines has been terminated, and where pretty much all the civil rights gained since Stonewall are under threat.

But you should be happy anyway, if for no other reason than it will piss off those trying to hurt our community. Take joy with your friends and in your actions. Be happy you have made it, and be determined to continue to keep going.

Happy Pride!

New Privacy Principles for a more trustworthy web

Protecting user privacy is fundamental to creating a web that works for everyone. Last week, W3C published its Statement on Privacy Principles, which provides definitions for privacy concepts plus privacy principles to guide web development. Learn more about this guide and how it can help us all to create a more trustworthy web for users around the world by “levelling up” privacy.

I am currently awaiting the outcomes of bureaucratic processes in five different countries. All of them are multi-step, and the timelines for all of them are slower than usual according to the bureaucrats themselves.

Can we get thumb-twiddling into the Olympics? Because I need some good to come out of this, and I suspect I'm going to be a contender.
