Anyone interested in Internet Governance might be interested as
subscribing (free of charge) to this newsletter from the Geneva
Internet Platform.<br>
<br>
Of potential interest this month is the new EU-US Privacy Shield,
summarised in the newsletter. I wonder whether that affects the
regular requests from European Registrars to seek a data retention
waiver (like this one: <a moz-do-not-send="true"

Kindest regards,<br>

Digital Watch</em> newsletter</a> is
out! The issue provides
the latest digital
policy updates which
took place in July and
August. The main
highlights:</div>
<div style="color:
#58585a;font-family:
Tahoma;font-size:
14px;line-height:
150%;text-align: left;">
<ul>
<li>Summer is
generally a quiet
period for
policy-making. This
year, however, July
and August have been
uncharacteristically
busy. NATO declared
cyberspace as its
fourth operation
domain; the EU-US
Privacy Shield was
approved, while the
Internet was at the
centre of terrorist
and security
threats. State
responsibility in
cyberspace is being
discussed, while
e-commerce is
gaining momentum.</li>
<li>Nine months after
the invalidation of
the Safe Harbour
Agreement, the
European Commission
confirmed that the
new EU-US Privacy
Shield affords
adequate protection
to the privacy of EU
citizens when their
data are transferred
to the US. We
explore the seven
key privacy
principles that US
companies must
adhere to, as well
as the new
commitments made by
the US government in
relation to the
implementation of
the Shield.</li>
<li>Pokemon Go has
achieved massive
popularity. With its
interplay between
the virtual and
physical experiences
of our reality, the
game brings into
sharper focus many
issues related to
how the Internet is
used and how it
affects our society.
It also has
implications on many
digital policy
areas. </li>
<li>The IG Barometer
of Online Media
reveals the top
three debated topics
so far this summer:
access and digital
divide, Internet
Protocol numbers and
root zone, and the
Internet of Things.
We give an overview
of the main
developments in
these three areas.</li>
<li>Included in this
issue are events
that took place in
International
Geneva, and the main
global digital
policy events in
September.</li>
<li>The Brazilian
version on Issue 13,
in Portuguese, will
be available soon. </li>
