[Air-L] VIDEO / AUDIO / TEXT - Gigabit Annual Symposium 2024

[Joly MacFie]

I recorded several things over the course of IGF 2024. This Day 0 event
wasn't one of them - I actually downloaded it from IGF's YouTube
<https://www.youtube.com/@igf/streams>, and just edited.

Having one's session on the first day is always a risky proposition, and
true to form, the Giganet Symposium, somewhat truncated from previous
years, had its fair share of gremlins - you may observe an audio drop at
the start of the Round Table, and that Monika Stachon's slides were not
shared with the online participants. Hope is alive that the missing
material may yet materialize, to be added to this archive.

Notwithstanding all that, some great research was presented. Topics
included ransomware, digital sovereignty,  platform governance in Arab
countries, online opposition in Iran, and data portability in China. The
crowning jewel was a back-and-forth between a government rep and two
distinguished academics over the current state of global Internet policy
inclusion. This one was sufficiently stimulating as to be Insta-worthy!

On *December 15, 2024* the *Global Internet Governance Academic Network
(Giganet) Annual Symposium
<https://intgovforum.org/en/content/igf-2024-day-0-event-97-giganet-annual-symposium>*
 was held at the *Internet Governance Forum
<https://intgovforum.org/en/dashboard/igf-2024>* (IGF) in Riyadh. Saudi
Arabia.

*Giganet <https://www.giga-net.org/>* aims to foster multidisciplinary
research on internet governance. The symposium serves as a platform for
scholars to present and discuss research related to various aspects of
internet governance, including but not limited to, infrastructure,
cybersecurity, digital rights, and sustainability. The Giganet Symposium
thus plays a crucial role in shaping discussions, policies, and research
directions in the field of internet governance, bringing together
academics, practitioners, and policymakers from around the world.
