Valid point, Steve. I would suggest creating a WG on illegal content or including it explicitly in the AA WG. ----- Original Message ----- From: Nash, Steve [mailto:snash@arbor.net] To: paf@frobbit.se,brian.nisbet@heanet.ie Cc: cooperation-wg@ripe.net, anti-abuse-wg@ripe.net Sent: Fri, 1 Feb 2013 10:51:45 +0000 Subject: [anti-abuse-wg] RIPE response to Terrorist use of the Internet -CleanIT CleanIT (www.cleanitproject.eu/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Reducing-terrorist-use-of-the-internet.pdf ) seems to me to be a useful report asking governments to facilitate awareness and fund "referral units", and "Internet Companies" to provide reasonable end-user feedback mechanisms on suspected Terrorist Internet use. - Terrorist use of the Internet is not a subject that fits into the remit of any one RIPE WG. - One might consider such use to be Abuse, but the current charter of Anti Abuse excludes dealing with illegal content. - This subject may also be considered to require specialist attention that not all members of any existing WG would wish to follow. Do we need a new WG, or do we need a sub-WG list within an existing WG? I do think it is important that RIPE responds to the report in some way, otherwise RIPE will be considered as disinterested, and not necessarily engaged in future dialogue.
