The conversation around the IANA transition is heating up and now that we're all looking at real movement on Internet governance at a global level, some predictable politics are stepping in.

While nominally non-partisan, they are known for harboring right wing viewpoints. As the Republican-controlled 114th Congress gets under way there is refreshed vigor in tackling tech issues. Much of this is summed up in Senator Thune's talk here, which lays out a comprehensive agenda.</div><div style="font-size:small"><br></div><div style="font-size:small">We've already seen the House and Senate launch their own Open Internet scheme. The FCC panelists seemed all to be resigned to a Title II reclassication, and predicted it would turn out messy. The policy panel considered that technical issues had become over politicized. Effort has to be made by both sides to find compromise solutions. The CommActUpdate will take time. The third 'governance' panel was spiced up by the presence of David Post and Ambassador David Gross. In his remarks the Senator had mentioned that Congress intends a hands on approach to the IANA transition. He promised a hearing. Another topic was the announcement the day before by the President of France that social media could be penalized for harboring hate speech, with Andrea Glorioso from the audience invoking the specter of global resistance to "US First Amendment imperialism" which was responded to by another audience member who criticized European privacy exceptionalism. There was back and forth over who has the real power, states or the private sector.</div><div style="font-size:small"><br></div><div style="font-size:small">I've broken the 4 hour live webcast into segments.
