Disturbing Internet Plan

RussiaToday

Leaked documents from a recent International Telecommunications Union meeting have exposed several disturbing examples of potential usages of the Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) standard, which was recently adopted by a UN conference in Dubai.

­The leaked documents include a full draft recommendation on the ‘Y.2770’ standard for DPI. This technology is used to monitor, filter and manage Internet traffic. It could potentially be used by governments and international telecom companies to easily scan data sent on the Internet.

Though the recommendation specifies only the requirements for DPI in next-generation networks, it also suggests that such standards be applicable to the current generation.

The draft document does not cover the potential impact of the DPI, but recommends that implementers and users of the described capabilities “shall comply with all applicable national and regional laws, regulations and policies.”

DPI will provide functionality to control and inspect Internet traffic – including encrypted and compressed data – in a wide range of possible scenarios.

The paper mentions several such scenarios, including: forwarding copyright-protected audio content, detection of a specific transferred file from a particular user, identifying uploading BitTorrent users and detecting and blocking Peer-to-Peer VoIP telephony.

Critics are calling the DPI standard invasive, expressing concern of its approval, while the ITU itself has been accused of secrecy because it did not allow individual countries to publish their own proposals for changes in the standard.

The World Conference on International Telecommunications this week was held behind closed doors, with even representatives from Google, Facebook and Twitter barred from attending.

The conference was briefly disrupted by a suspected hacker attack that forced the WCIT website offline for about two hours.

ITU Secretary General Hamadoun Toure accused the attackers of hypocrisy, saying that it was ironic that those who claim to be fighting for a free Internet disrupt online access to the event. “Do they believe in one rule for them and another for everybody else?” he said.

      Give up on the Internet, its not a tool for revolution or awakening. Do you really think the elite cabal would be stupid enough to give you the Internet, if they could not benefit from it?

      Of the solid 12 years Internet has been around, I see more dump people in America and the world. Internet has done nothing but to give a platform for the elite to control us more through youtube, facebook, and twiiter crap..wake up

      No alien civilization has a domain name

        Ah some lovely cynicism from someone with two first names who yearns to be with aliens more than his own race.

        And pray tell how far have you gone away from facebook and youtube to see its benefits. Are you one of the guys trolling the conspiracy filled part of youtube talking about alien ufos on poorly focused cameras? If you cant be troubled to go looking for the best of us on the internet than itll be a self fulfilling prophecy when you claim its only filled with the worst of us.

        What will we wake from chris, will we wake up and suddenly understand who to fight? Where to go? Who is safe to talk too? By your reasoning that this “Cabal” wouldnt give us anything that they couldnt profit from; then why have they given us any of the freedoms we have. Shouldnt there just be “A boot stomping into the face of humanity forever”?

        Honestly get off the computer for your own health, you sound like one of those browbeat folk who are just cynical and depressed because they havent seen the light of day in months. The worst of us still represent a startling minority, there are those out there on the net that want freedom and aspire for humanity to be more than youtube and twitter but you wont find them on BIN talking about alien domain names. Information is still free and its never been faster and easier to spread than with the internet, if you cannot see that you’re a fool.
