icann’s decision to liberalize the market for Internet Generic Top-Level Domain Names has been giving rise to many concerns, related in particular to the registration of health-related strings, which may favour fraud and the dissemination of misleading health information. However, a very sophisticated mechanism has been put into place by icann, intended to prevent the registration of strings which face opposition from a significant portion of the community they purportedly aim to serve, or which are contrary to generally accepted principles related to morality and public order. Tailored after the model of commercial arbitration, icann rules of procedure are noteworthy in that they give standing to all interested Internet users and to an Independent Objector. Though underlining some of its procedural deficiencies, this article emphasizes the importance of the icann mechanism in the “constitutionalization” of the Internet. It also discusses the contribution of icann expert panels to international human rights discourse, as illustrated by the expert panel determinations walking the tightrope between freedom of expression and the right to health.

Internet Development

This chapter explores the interplay between society and Internet technology in the context of the developing former socialist country of Mongolia. This chapter goes beyond questions of access to the Internet and explores three factors of the global digital divide. First, this chapter explores how language factors such as non-Roman domain names and the use of the Cyrillic alphabet exacerbate the digital divide in the impoverished country of Mongolia. ICANN's initiation of international domain names is an initial development toward achieving linguistic diversity on the Internet. Second, this chapter explores how post-communist settings and foreign investment and aid dependency afflict Internet development. A rapid economic growth in Mongolia has increased access to mobile phones, computers, and the Internet; however, the influx of foreign capital poured into the mining, construction, and telecommunication sectors frequently comes in non-concessional terms raising concerns over the public debt in Mongolia.

There is a paradigm shift in the financial services industry. Combined with ever-changing customer expectations and preferences, emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, the internet of things (IoT), and blockchain are redefining how financial institutions deliver services. It is an enormous task to remain competitive in this ever-changing environment. Financial institutions see FinTech as a major part of the digital future, and as proof of this, since 2015, financial institutions have invested over US$ 27 billion in FinTech and digital innovation. This chapter is an introductory chapter that explores FinTech in the literature. It focuses on how FinTech is reshaping the financial industry by describing FinTech phases and development process. The financial products and services using FinTech are also described with a highlight on Islamic FinTech. The chapter finally concludes by describing the future of FinTech.

Depth Interviews

This chapter explores several factors of the global digital divide in the former socialist country of Mongolia. By analyzing manifest media content on the Internet, as well as by interviewing people involved in Internet development, this chapter goes beyond the question of access to the Internet and asks how language factors exacerbate the digital divide in an impoverished country. Initiating non-Western alphabet domain names and setting culturally inclusive non-Western alphabet standards have been important steps in achieving linguistic diversity on the Internet and overcoming the global digital divide in countries like Mongolia. Furthermore, this chapter explores how a post-communist political setting, aid dependency, and international organizations influence Internet development. The analysis of in-depth interviews provides nuanced explanation of the socialist legacy that is traced in institutional routines, people’s attitudes, and social practices.

Administrative Tasks

Although the Internet has no cross-organizational, financial, or operational management responsible for the entire Internet, certain administrative tasks are coordinated centrally. Among the most important organizational tasks that require global regulation is the management of Internet Protocol (IP) addresses and their corresponding domain names. The IP address consists of an existing 32 bit (IP4) or 128 bit (IP6) sequence of digits and is the actual physical network address by which routing on the Internet takes place and which will ensure that the data packets reach the correct host computer.

Free Speech Rights

Abstract:The Internet presents opportunities for corporations to efficiently build their brands online and to enhance their global reach. But there are threats as well as opportunities, since anti-branding and free-riding activities are easier in cyberspace. One such threat is the unauthorized incorporation of a trademark into a domain name. This can lead to trademark dilution and cause consumer confusion. But some users claim a right to use these trademarks for the purpose of parody or criticism. Underlying these trademark conflicts is the familiar tension between property rights and free speech rights. While some trademark scholars are reluctant to consider a trademark as property, we find strong support for the property paradigm in Hegel’s philosophy. Assuming that a trademark is an earned property right, we propose that a trademark owner should be allowed to control the permutations of its trademark incorporated into domain names unless a reasonable person would not confuse that domain name with the company’s mark. But we also conclude that there must be latitude to employ a domain name for negative editorial comment, so long as the source and purpose of that domain name is plainly apparent.

Purpose: to reveal the characteristics of unfair competition in the intellectual property market in the Russian Federation and abroad and propose measures to combat such competition. Main results: Recommendations are presented for improving the methods for combating unfair competition in the intellectual property market. The authors propose methods which can be implemented by means of copyright protection both in the market as a whole and on the Internet, by combating trademark and service mark infringers. Besides, in order to curb unfair competition in the market, possible methods are proposed for changing the registration of domain names that allow protecting rights on the Internet. Main conclusions: In practice, there is a problem when declaring goods that contain intellectual property items). There is no registry making it possible to search for content, and search using graphic images is also difficult. In order to reduce unfair competition, it is proposed to improve the filling procedure by adding a column indicating the international registry, as well as to create a separate registry with a verbal description of images to facilitate the search. In accordance with this system, it is necessary to improve it regarding errors that are often made when filling out forms. At present, a single mistake can become a reason why the item is not selected. Solving these problems can increase control and effectiveness in terms of intellectual property protection. In most countries, unfair competition is prohibited at the legislative level. However, with the development of economic relations, the methods of unfair competition are continuously improving and becoming more and more subtle and sophisticated.

Botnet is a serious threat for the Internet and it has created great damage to the Internet. How to detect botnet has become an ongoing endeavor research. Series of methods have been discussed in recent research. However, one of the remaining challenges is that the high computational overhead. In this paper, a lightweight hybrid botnet detection method is proposed. Considering the features in the botnet data packets and the characteristic of employing DGA (Domain Generation Algorithm) domain names to connect to the botnet, two sensors are designed and deployed individually and parallelly. Signature detection is used on the gateway sensor to dig out known bot software and deep learning based techniques are used on the DNS (Domain Name Server) server sensor to find DGA domain names. With this method, the computational overhead would be shared by the two sensors and experiments are conducted and the results indicate that the method is effective in detecting botnet
