I like Mitch and I like EFF but his take on the issue failed to distinguish properly between truly private contracting and ICANN-attributable policy making and he got his butt kicked as a result.

We covered  new gTLD, whois, UDRP etc https://rightscon.sched.org/ev ent/6Ih0/never-underestimate- domain-names-policies <https://rightscon.sched.org/event/6Ih0/never-underestimate-domain-names-policies>. so a more specific topic would be helpful and natural continuity of what we did before.

> Agree that the 3rd proposal might fit the best - it's one of our current concerns at ICANN but it also has a much broader implications than within ICANN spaces (and you put it into a broader perspective of IG anyway). There are already enough examples how voluntary practices (including content regulation) can become commonly accepted guidelines and then binding obligations. Very timely topic - we all know this; should be a very interesting session.
> I find Ayden's proposal also worth to discuss. It will be a more focused topic since there is a lot to discuss already but also a forward looking theme to submit. Could be a great choice.
> If we are to submit a couple of them, I think proposal number 3 would be my top choice, and then either RDS/WHOIS and number two (on MS model) from you.
> Ready to take part in further elaborating if necessary. I also hope there will be NCUC members available to carry out the outreach at the Rightscon, assume this is also the idea behind the submission?
> Thanks for bringing this forward!

This is an audience that is as committed as we are to protecting vulnerable populations from cyber attacks, doxing, and swatting – all behaviours that the WHOIS protocol, in its present form, unfortunately harbours – and it would be great to have these voices on our side, ideally participating in future public consultation exercises on how the RDS evolves.

> Proposal 2. Adopting Multistakeholder Processes on the Internet: The Case of ICANN
>  
> ICANN is a private corporation that makes policies affecting domain name registrants globally. Unlike some other Internet corporations and platforms that take decisions unilaterally, ICANN uses a multistakeholder process for policymaking. Multistakeholder governance is a positive aspect of ICANN governance process. But sometimes there might be a circumvention of a process in generating the policies which might hamper the multistakeholder nature of ICANN governance. Considering the positive and negative aspects of ICANN's governance mechanism, the session will address the following question:  Can ICANN's multistakeholder model be used on other platforms and even social platforms to govern their process? 
>  
> Proposal 3. Content Regulation and private  ordering at Internet governance institutions
>  
> Private ordering is the generation, implementation and enforcement of policies by a private entity.   It has been a phenomenon on the Internet since the governments' oversight was weak or non-existent. Private ordering is used in internet governance institutions such as ICANN which mainly carry out their policies and implement them through a multistakeholder process and contractual agreements. Such agreements and policies must not lead ICANN to become a content regulator on the Internet. This session will discuss: What is content regulation on the Internet and does ICANN's policies affect the content on the Internet. If it does how so and why and how can we prevent ICANN from having such a role.
