width="80" alt="" /> Last month marked 40 years since the registration of the world's first ever .com domain name – symbolics.com – in March 1985. It’s a time to reflect both on the role .com has played in the evolution and growth of the internet over the past 40 years, and on the importance of ensuring that .com remains secure, stable, and resilient for the billions of people who rely on it every day. Who could have imagined in 1985 that over the course of the next four decades, internet users would register hundreds of millions of domain names... </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/9474" class="blue">Pat Kane</a></li> <li>Comments: 0</li> <li>Views: 576</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="/posts/a-spectrum-crisis">A Spectrum Crisis?</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Apr 07, 2025 12:47 PM PDT </div> <p> <img src="/images/member_photos/photo_8383.jpg" border="0" width="80" alt="" /> CTIA, the trade association for cellular companies, published a recent blog titled, "The Looming Spectrum Crisis". The blog quotes a study from Accenture that concludes that a lack of spectrum for 5G is reaching a point of crisis. The Accenture study says that cellular networks will be unable to meet nearly one-fourth of peak-period requests for connection as soon as 2027. </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/8383" class="blue">Doug Dawson</a></li> <li>Comments: 0</li> <li>Views: 875</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="/posts/notorious-hosting-providers-an-overview-of-the-highest-threat-hosts-from-ip-address-blacklist-analysis">‘Notorious Hosting Providers’: An Overview of the Highest-Threat Hosts From IP-address Blacklist Analysis</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Apr 03, 2025 12:49 PM PDT </div> <p> <img src="/images/member_photos/photo_8564.jpg" border="0" width="80" alt="" /> One major element of many brand-protection programmes is the use of an algorithm to sort the findings identified through monitoring, according to their relevance or level of potential threat.

As it increasingly permeates every aspect of human activity - from communication and commerce to governance and geopolitics - the Internet has evolved into both a shared global commons and a contested arena of power. At stake are its core values: global connectivity, openness, interoperability, decentralization, the end-to-end principle, robustness and reliability, and freedom from harm. </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/9353" class="blue">Pari Esfandiari</a></li> <li>Comments: 1</li> <li>Views: 4,348</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="/posts/breaking-the-ai-bottleneck-the-future-of-high-density-data-centers">Breaking the AI Bottleneck: The Future of High-Density Data Centers</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Mar 27, 2025 3:20 PM PDT </div> <p> <img src="/images/member_photos/photo_9485.jpg" border="0" width="80" alt="" /> Artificial intelligence (AI) has become synonymous with innovation, transforming industries at an unprecedented pace. While some may frame AI as a groundbreaking development of our time, it's essential to acknowledge that its roots run deep. AI has evolved immensely from early tools like the abacus to present-day GPU-driven large language models. What sets the current landscape apart? The sheer scale of data, computational demand, and complexity of workloads. </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/9485" class="blue">Nabeel Mahmood</a></li> <li>Comments: 0</li> <li>Views: 4,962</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="/posts/speed-isnt-everything-the-other-metrics-that-matter-in-broadband">Speed Isn’t Everything: The Other Metrics That Matter in Broadband</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Mar 27, 2025 11:41 AM PDT </div> <p> <img src="/images/member_photos/photo_8383.jpg" border="0" width="80" alt="" /> The marketing area of the broadband industry spends a lot of time convincing folks that the most important part of a broadband product is download speed. This makes sense if fiber and cable are competing in a market against slower technologies. But it seems like most advertising about speed is to convince existing customers to upgrade to faster speeds. While download speed is performance, the industry doesn't spend much time talking about the other important attributes of broadband. </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/8383" class="blue">Doug Dawson</a></li> <li>Comments: 0</li> <li>Views: 4,360</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="/posts/reviling-universal-service-subsidies-and-then-showcasing-the-results">Reviling Universal Service Subsidies and Then Showcasing the Results</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Mar 26, 2025 11:55 AM PDT </div> <p> <img src="/images/member_photos/photo_2982.jpg" border="0" width="80" alt="" /> Today, the Supreme Court will consider a challenge to the universal service subsidy program established soon after the introduction of telephone service by the AT&T Bell System and later officially adopted by the FCC as mandated by a 1996 law.1, 2 Universal service funding supports access to telephone and broadband service by subscribers in rural locales that commercial ventures will not serve absent a subsidy. </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/2982" class="blue">Rob Frieden</a></li> <li>Comments: 0</li> <li>Views: 4,631</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="/posts/domain-industry-2025-current-landscape-and-key-market-data">Domain Industry 2025: Current Landscape and Key Market Data</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Mar 25, 2025 12:07 PM PDT </div> <p> <img src="/images/member_photos/photo_8734.jpg" border="0" width="80" alt="" /> As we navigate through 2025, the domain industry remains a critical focal point amid persistent geopolitical instabilities, inflation, and an ongoing energy crisis.

While imperceptible to most users, this action - specifically, the introduction of a new Domain Name System Security Extensions (DNSSEC) Key Signing Key (KSK) in the root zone - is the next step of a multi-year-long process to change, or "roll," the cryptographic key that secures the root of the DNS. </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/3397" class="blue">Duane Wessels</a></li> <li>Comments: 0</li> <li>Views: 7,439</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="/posts/beyond-whois-circleid-and-edgemoor-research-institute-second-event-on-filling-the-gaps">Beyond WHOIS: CircleID and Edgemoor Research Institute Second Event on ‘Filling the Gaps’</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Mar 19, 2025 11:04 AM PDT </div> <p> Experts at a CircleID and Edgemoor Research Institute webinar debated the challenges of domain registration data access in a post-GDPR world.

And it is a battlefield in the 21st century wars. Both in the "Bayerischer Hof" and in the "IHK Munich", where the 11th edition of the Munich Cybersecurity Conference (MCSC) took place, controversial debates circled around the question of how civilian and military use of digital services will interplay in the years to come. </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/5851" class="blue">Wolfgang Kleinwächter</a></li> <li>Comments: 0</li> <li>Views: 7,085</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="/posts/cyber-resilience-resources-restructuring">Cyber Resilience Resources Restructuring</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Mar 08, 2025 9:45 AM PST </div> <p> <img src="/images/member_photos/photo_6809.jpg" border="0" width="80" alt="" /> Information and Communications (ICT) infrastructures rely on many globally shared critical resilience information resources for diverse essential functions such as identifiers, routing, and cyber security. However, this ICT ecosystem has rapidly become significantly less stable and collaborative with dramatically diminished respect for legal norms and values because of the new USA national Administration. The instability includes the vicarious, wholesale removal of essential public safety and scientific databases, as well as global collaboration with multiple global UN public safety bodies.

Those who expected a recovery in 2024 were sadly disappointed. Prices for IP addresses continued to decline, leveling out during the second half of the year. And yet, market activity remained remarkably unaffected - a sign, perhaps, that the market is settling into a new normal. </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a href="https://circleid.com/members/6982" class="blue">Janine Goodman</a></li> <li>Comments: 0</li> <li>Views: 4,253</li> </ul> </div> <h3><a href="/posts/braive-new-world-part-1-brand-protection-clustering-as-a-candidate-task-for-the-application-of-ai-capabilities">Br’AI’ve New World - Part 1: Brand Protection ‘Clustering’ as a Candidate Task for the Application of AI Capabilities</a></h3> <div class="byLine"> Mar 05, 2025 9:00 AM PST </div> <p> <img src="/images/member_photos/photo_8564.jpg" border="0" width="80" alt="" /> As counterfeit networks grow more elusive, AI-driven clustering could revolutionize brand protection. By linking disparate findings, identifying serial infringers, and enabling bulk enforcement, AI offers a smarter approach to monitoring and takedown efforts. Yet, challenges remain - from data reliability to analyzing complex content. Companies that master AI-driven clustering may gain a significant advantage in the fight against brand abuse. </p> <div class="postInfo pipedLinks"> <ul> <li>By <a
