Pepe, si, nosotros tenemos por ser miembros de la UIT. Pero el acuerdo de
membresia que se firma con la UIT contiene una clausula de confidencialidad
que no permite la difusion publica de los documentos que estan reservados a
miembros....

La respuesta de la UIT a esta carta se puede leer aqui:

en-letter-season/

Como dice la UIT, son todos mitos que andan dando vueltas por ahi :-) Si ven
en el punto 3 de la respuesta de UIT, veran que el proceso es tan abierto y
transparente que la diversidad de opiniones se encuentra plasmada en la
lista de asistentes, que sin embargo es inaccesible si uno no tiene usuario
en el sistema TIES de la UIT, al que tienen acceso solo los miembros de
UIT....

INTERNATIONAL TRADE UNION CONFEDERATION

ITU Refuses Proposals for Open Discussion of Plans to Regulate Internet

Geneva, 15 November 2012(ITUC Media Release): The International Trade

Union Confederation (ITUC) today met with Dr Hamadoun Toure, Head of the

UN’s International Telecommunication Union, to take internet regulation

proposals off the agenda of the World Conference on International

Telecommunication (WCIT-12) due to take place in Dubai in December. ITUC

General Secretary Sharan Burrow said that the internet had always been

managed by a multi-stakeholder approach, but that the proposed changes

would radically undermine this model and seriously alter internet

governance.

“This is not a process that the UN should stamp as having legitimacy when

governments and in particular telecoms ministries are simply negotiating on

their own interests, in a forum without proper civil society engagement. We

strongly oppose plans which would increase costs, reduce the spread of the

internet and increase net censorship at the expense of human rights.

“We put a proposal to the ITU today to take the damaging proposals off the

table at Dubai, and join a broad, open and multi-stakeholder process that

would bring together all the government, civil society and business

interests to look at the future of the internet. Regrettably, the ITU

rejected this.”

“The danger for the upcoming World Conference on International

Telecommunications (WCIT-12) is that certain governments will attempt to

undermine the multi-stakeholder approach behind closed doors and without

full transparency.

“Certain proposed changes cause a great deal of alarm to the global labour

movement - in particular, introduction of a pricing regime; requirements

that the internet only be used in a ‘rational’ way - these are changes that

ought to be openly debated; not behind closed doors as the ITU plans.

“We can’t afford to have vested interests of some governments and

telecommunications companies take over the internet as we know it.

“An internet totally controlled by government and big business contradicts

the very essence of what the internet represents - open and free access for

all.

“These are hugely important issues, which should be dealt with in an open,

transparent and inclusive way,” said Ms Burrow.

Phillip Jennings, the General Secretary of UNI Global Union which

represents workers in the telecoms and internet sectors, called on the ITU

to accept trade unions as full discussion partners, which it had never done

despite repeated requests from UNI.

The meeting with Dr Toure came a week after Equal Times launched ‘Stop the

net grab’, a global online campaign to press for an open consultation on

internet regulation

gn-against-internet-crackdown.

The ITUC and Greenpeace signaled their concerns in a joint letter to

UN Secretary General Ban K-moon last Friday.
