[NCUC-DISCUSS] INPUT NEEDED ICANN81 Community Session Topic by Wednesday 07 August 2024

[Raymond Mamattah]

Hello Benjamin,

I suggest, among other topics, for us to look at a topic around Registration
Data Request Service (RDRS).

In a recent training, one question I asked that I did not get a
satisfactory response on was if there are any mechanisms to verify the
identity of the data requester.

For example, if someone goes into the system and claims he or she is a
security officer or a legal practitioner and needs the data for legal
prosecution purposes, how will the identity of such a person be confirmed.
This is to avoid giving the data to someone who is not what he or she
claims.

A second topic I will suggest is for us to look at the *Impact of Emerging
Technologies on the DNS*. For me, it is a bit worrying if we do not discuss
and prepare for the impacts emerging technologies such as AI, blockchain
etc will have on the survival of the DNS.  Will the DNS operations such as
domain name processes remain as it is looking into the future? Will there
be the need for ICANN and IP addresses in the future?

My final proposal is to discuss *Internet Governance and Sustainability
(Green Tech)*. What are the various ways we as civil societies etc using
the Internet, what ways can we still use the Internet in a more responsible
way but contribute to the sustainability of the environment.

Green Tech is a big deal and concerns us as civil society entities and we
also have a major role to play.

Regards,
Raymond Mamattah
