The sprawling document, which governs telephone, television, and radio networks, may be extended to cover the Internet, raising questions about who should control it, and how. Arrayed on one side will be representatives from the United States and other major Western powers, advocating what many call \u201cInternet freedom,\u201d a plastic concept that has been defined by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton as the right to use the Internet to \u201cexpress one\u2019s views,\u201d to \u201cpeacefully assemble,\u201d and to \u201cseek or share\u201d information. The U.S. and most of its allies basically want to keep Internet governance the way it is: run by a small group of technical nonprofit and volunteer organizations, most of them based in the United States.<\/p>\n<p>On the other side will be representatives from countries where governments want to place restrictions on how people use the Internet. These include Russia, China, Brazil, India, Iran, and a host of others. All of them have implemented or experimented with more intrusive monitoring of online activities than the U.S. is publicly known to practice. A number of countries have openly called for the creation of a \u201cnew global body\u201d to oversee online policy. At the very least, they\u2019d like to give the United Nations a great deal more control over the Internet.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Read more at\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.vanityfair.com\/culture\/2012\/05\/internet-regulation-war-sopa-pipa-defcon-hacking\">http:\/\/www.vanityfair.com\/culture\/2012\/05\/internet-regulation-war-sopa-pipa-defcon-hacking<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In December 2012, Diplomats from 193 countries will converge there to renegotiate a United Nations treaty called the International Telecommunications Regulations.
