ITW Global Leaders' Forum Demonstrates How Blockchain Can Transform Inter-Carrier Settlement
ITW Global Leaders’ Forum demonstrates how blockchain can transform inter-carrier settlement The successful Proof of Concept shows how blockchain-enabled settlement between multiple carriers can revolutionize wholesale telecoms sector by streamlining complex transactions HKT (SEHK:6823) – HONG KONG / LONDON, October 23, 2018 – ITW Global Leaders’ Forum (GLF) has announced the successful completion of a multi-lateral blockchain Proof of Concept (PoC) involving several of its members. The PoC, led by PCCW Global and Colt Technology Services, in collaboration with BT, Orange, Telefonica and Telstra, has demonstrated the viability of a platform that can settle voice transactions between multiple carriers in minutes rather than hours. The breakthrough is the latest in a series of blockchain PoCs carried out by GLF members and supported by technology partner and blockchain specialist Clear. The trial just completed is the first to involve a multi-lateral series of relationships among the wholesale telecommunications industry, and points to a future of secure and frictionless settlement across the sector. The GLF is now reviewing options around a potential governance structure to develop the technology further and implement a solution for the industry that replaces existing and cumbersome processes for settlement of voice as well as other types of transactions, examples such as mobile roaming or data on demand. Mr. Marc Halbfinger, Chief Executive Officer of PCCW Global and the Chairman of the GLF, said, “We are very pleased that this latest Proof of Concept has expanded to include more carriers. It has been a strong belief within the GLF that innovative technologies such as blockchain can be harnessed to improve the overall efficiency of the industry, and it is now clear that the industry can look forward to the benefit of becoming further aligned. -
Policy Options and Regulatory Mechanisms for Managing Radicalization on the Internet
Policy options and regulatory mechanisms for managing radicalization on the Internet Paris, 30 September 2016 “[…] I firmly believe that in a free democratic society, freedom of speech and expression is one of the most prized freedoms which must be defended and upheld at any cost and this should be particularly so in the land of Voltaire. It is indeed unfortunate that in the world of today, when science and technology have advanced the frontiers of knowledge and mankind is beginning to realize that human happiness can be realized only through inter-dependence and cooperation, the threshold of tolerance should be going down. It is high time man should realize his spiritual dimension and replace bitterness and hatred by love and compassion, tolerance and forgiveness.” Justice Prafullachandra Bhagwati Dan Shefet (Individual Specialist) ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The author wishes to thank the following for their support, valuable advice and input throughout the drafting of the Report: Dr. Indrajit Banerjee and his team in UNESCO’s Knowledge Societies Division The UNESCO Delegates and Ministries of Justice/Interior of countries that have participated in the Country Survey.

Since the inception of Napster, home copying of digital files has taken flight. The first providers of software or infrastructure for the illegal exchange of files were held contributory or vicariously liable for copyright infringement. In response, they quickly diluted the chain of liability to such an extent that neither the software producers, nor the service providers could be held liable. Moving further down the communication chain, the rights holders are now requiring Internet Service Providers (ISPs) that provide access to end customers to help them with the enforcement of their rights. This article discusses case law regarding the enforcement of copyright by Internet Access Providers throughout Europe. -

BICSA Working Paper Series, No. 1 ‐ Elena Zaharieva About the Berlin International Center for the Study of Antisemitism (BICSA) We have faced high waves of antisemitism in the last years, especially since the second Intifada in 2000, and the horror of 9/11. From the Gaza flotilla in May 2010 to the Iranian threat, from Nazi marches in Latvia or Hungary to the obfuscation of the Holocaust, from antisemitic and anti‐Zionist rallies in Berlin, London, San Fran‐ cisco to scholarly works on “Islamophobia,” promoting, supporting or downplaying Islamism and Islamic Jihad: antisemitism is still an issue, 67 years after National Socialism and Auschwitz. The Berlin International Center for the Study of Antisemit ism (BICSA) will provide scholarly research. -
