Buenos dias a todos...
Envio el texto de declaración por parte de AD Colombia.
ccTLD .co
y la preocupación de Ageia Densi Colombia
Según los
parámetros de la norma de estandarización ISO 3166 y conforme
a la legislación doméstica colombiana, como la Ley 1341 de 2009, y la Resolución
1652 de 2008, a Colombia se le identifica territorialmente en el ciberespacio
con el ccTLD (Country Code Top Level Domain): .co, Ageia Densi Colombia ve con desconfianza que dicho dominio sea transformado en un
“dominio comodín”. La globalización de las diferentes actividades comerciales locales
es sólo permisible si se acompaña de una “normalización” que integre todas las
actividades de la cadena productiva. Al parecer la economía de mercado puede
más que la sensatez.
Aquella lejana discusión sobre la posibilidad de
que el .CO dejara de ser sólo territorial para volverse comercial es ya una
ineludible certeza. No bastaron las advertencias de IANA (Internet Assigned
Numbers Authority) en su reporte de noviembre del 2009 sobre los peligros de
dicha comercialización. En este momento existen alrededor de 50 países que
pretenden reservar el dominio .CO en registros de nombres que desean utilizarlo
para actividades comerciales y relacionadas.
También existen estudios de mercadeo que dicen
con orgullo que el 75% de las personas relaciona el .co con Compañía o
Corporación y con otros tipos de actividades comerciales. Ageia Densi Colombia
pregunta ¿a cuál interés
público se refiere el Ministerio de Tecnologías de la Información y
Comunicaciones TIC, respecto del dominio .co?
Como
antes anotamos, IANA, ha señalado, aunque no el único, uno de los grandes
riesgos en la liberalización del Dominio .co es la Captura de dominios
inexistentes por substitución, lo cual se explica en la similitud entre los
dominios .com y .co. Esta situación se concreta en la posibilidad bastante
real, de “escribir” direcciones registradas en el .com pero inexistentes en el
.co lo cual será aprovechado por verdaderos “piratas” electrónicos para
redirigir este tráfico hacia páginas de su interés. Según la empresa que
administra el dominio, .Co Internet SAS, expresó su posición en reconocer que
la posibilidad de explotación del dominio .co como comodín era perjudicial y lo
exponía a consecuencias negativas para la seguridad y estabilidad del mismo.
Tal posición es respaldada con la expresión de que proveerán su mayor esfuerzo
en la implementación de buenas prácticas internacionales para evitar que tales
situaciones se presenten.
Existe
una estrecha relación entre los nombres de dominio y el interés público. Dicha
relación pasa a ser mucho más importante y significativa que una mera
consagración estatal, que en el caso colombiano adquirió relevancia en ámbitos
académicos y que ahora vuelve a la palestra, en momentos en los que su apertura
indica la inminencia de materialización de un riesgo previa y ampliamente
anunciado.
Ageia
Densi Colombia ve con preocupación que los documentos publicados por el
Ministerio TIC muy poco sirven y mucho menos el papel que se observa del
Consejo Asesor para la Administración del Dominio .co en la definición de los
parámetros de regulación. La posibilidad de argumentar a favor o en contra de
teorías como la Soberanía Digital y la complejidad del manejo de recursos como
los ccTLDs, pasa a un segundo plano ante casos prominentes como el del dominio
.tv. Otros ejemplos abundan por montón y parecen avizorar grandes polémicas en
el caso del .co pese a que muchos
quieran verlo como grandes oportunidades de negocio.
Ageia
Densi Colombia estudiará el verdadero impacto de la decisión de liberalizar el
dominio .co a nivel global; lo que promete ser una posibilidad sin precedentes
en la Red de Redes, puede resultar en una situación conflictiva y con graves
consecuencias para Colombia, especialmente en cuanto a su Soberanía, a la cual
experiencias previas en situaciones
particulares no le reporta el mejor de los augurios.
Así
mismo, este proceso y nueva realidad, ya comenzó a ser explotada
comercialmente, sin tener en cuenta la voz de Colombia, sus habitantes y
usuarios finales de Internet. La “independencia” en la administración de este
recurso, no se ve sino como un aspecto que concierne a una sola empresa
privada. Como es frecuente en Colombia, este tipo de decisiones se banalizan al
pasar el análisis de situaciones vitales como esta, por el interés (egoísta?)
del gobernante de turno. Sucedió en el pasado (Licencias a Operadores Móviles)
sucede ahora y seguirá sucediendo en un futuro.

Asunto: Re: [lac-discuss-es] ccTLD .CO
Gracias Jose Luis por plantear estas preocupaciones...
Ya lo habiamos hecho. Me gustaria tener una postura de ACUI sobre el tema en la lista. No verlo me preocupa.
En el perfil de Antonio Medina en Facebook vi que subio un video recientemente y lo extracte en un pantallazo. Sera esta la postura de ACUI?
http://twitpic.com/1gpeat
Seria bueno saberlo
Saludos,
