Subject: Re: [IP] Introducing the Internet Bill of Rights
Hi, Dave,
As noted just this past week on the Internet-history mailing list, I had proposed such a list in 2004 at a meeting entitled âPreventing the Internet Meltdownâ here in LA that addresses the actual Internet rights themselves. Here it is below. The issue is that the rights below are needed to allow users to be first-class participants on the Internet, running their own servers and negotiating protocols with peers at their discretion, rather than that of the network operators.
Without the list below, I would claim that providers may be selling âaccess to Internet informationâ, but not Internet access. Itâs the difference between being allowed access to a library vs. being able to write your own books and contact authors directly.

Internet User âBill of Rightsâ
Joe Touch, 2004
1. REAL IP: Users have the right to a real IP address, routable from anywhere on the Internet.
2. REAL DNS (& REVERSE-DNS): Users have the right to a valid reverse DNS name for that IP address, and the forward lookup of that name that matches that address.
3. RECEIVE ANY: Users have the right to receive any valid IP packet, using any valid transport protocol on any valid port (if applicable), up to the limits of their local resources and network connection.
4. SEND ANY: Users have the right to send any valid IP packet to any valid real IP address, using any transport protocol, on any valid port (if applicable), provided it uses an inconsequential amount of resources of the network and potential receiver until mutual consent is established.
5. ENFORCEMENT: Users have the right to know the ISP responsible for traffic from any valid IP address, sufficient to register a complaint regarding violations of any of these rules.

Hi, Dave,
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/04/opinion/ro-khanna-internet-bill-of-rights.html
The list proposed in this op-ed focuses on personal information and consumer rights (as customers of any service), but not really much about the Internet per se. It even fails to capitalize the word properly, as is needed to distinguish the Internet from an internet, the latter being a network using the Internet protocols but not interconnected to the global Internet.As noted just this past week on the Internet-history mailing list, I had proposed such a list in 2004 at a meeting entitled âPreventing the Internet Meltdownâ here in LA that addresses the actual Internet rights themselves.
