It is illustrated clearly by two proposed technical standardizations that seek to leverage secure DNS. To some degree these developments highlight the strength of DNS institutions and how they might fill gaps elsewhere in the Internet's governance. But an increasing reliance upon and concentration of power in the DNS also makes getting its global governance correct even more important. <a href="https://circleid.com/posts/20120510_if_you_build_it_they_will_come" class="red"><span class="readmore">more</span></a> </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/2009" class="blue">Brenden Kuerbis</a></li> <li>May 10, 2012</li> <li>Comments: 2</li> <li>Views: 12,076</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="https://circleid.com/posts/20100608_reading_tea_leaves_china_statement_on_internet_policy">Reading Tea Leaves: China Statement on Internet Policy</a></h3> <div class="byLine">Related Topics: <a href="/topics/censorship" class="red">Censorship</a>,  <a href="/topics/internet_governance" class="red">Internet Governance</a>,  <a href="/topics/policy_regulation" class="red">Policy & Regulation</a>,  <a href="/topics/web" class="red">Web</a>,</div> <p> The Information Office of the State Council of the People's Republic of China has issued a statement on "Internet Policy in China."

Responding to a question on the News Hour about the USG policy response to dealing with cyber attacks, Beckstrom highlighted the critical role of ISP filtering, and identified the "organic" as well as "somewhat structured" coordination which occurs during a typical response.
