Comment

While Cynthia Dyson raised some valid concerns, it seemed clear on Friday that the WGIG was yet to define exactly what it should be regulating, let alone how it should be regulated on a global basis.

Until this definition is created, there is no need to worry unduly about the scope and power of the WGIG. They are, after all, initially tasked with delivering a report - not proposed solutions to issues.

I think we'd all agree that it is important that we have dialogue between countries on the necessity, validity and reach of Internet governance- the only debate is who should be involved in this, and what their remit should be.

As Ms. Dyson pointed out, it is unlikely that there will be any 'one size fits all' solution to the challenges.
