GigaNet 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. *AGENDA https://www.giga-net.org/2025/02/ <http://isoc.live/?action=user_content_redirect&uuid=63321f137f658dbb2108e01c9545baaa52534356652fa5fa8136f9f7d34c887f&blog_id=151329629&post_id=18859&user_id=2239291&subs_id=125336&signature=bae68dae81a3f6e78ce3f331537d10b0&email_name=new-post&user_email=joly@punkcast.com&encoded_url=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ2lnYS1uZXQub3JnLzIwMjUvMDIv>* All times CET = UTC+1 DAY 1 - Tuesday February 18 2025 *13:15 Introduction and welcome* *13:30 Panel 1* *A comparative study of China and EU’s digital sovereignty -**Xiaojuan Grace Yang* *Digital Sovereignty and the Fractured Landscape of Internet Governance - **Pilar Rodriguez Pita, Jorge Pérez Martínez, Alberto Urueña Lopez * *QUIC, or the battle that never was: a case of re-infrastructuring control over Internet traffic -**Francesca Musiani, Clément Perarnaud* Chair: *Sophie Hoogenboom* Discussant: *Serhat Tutkal* *15:30 Panel 2* *Cascading Secrecy: Tensions between Transparency and Trade Secrecy - **Hannah Ismael, Ziyaad Bhorat* *Far from a consensus: Exploring the role of digital authoritarianism in hindering UN discussions on cyber norms - **Claudiu Codreanu* *Contested Governance of Speech Online: Global Perspectives on Actors in Social Media Content Moderation - **Dennis Redeker* Chair: *Sophie Hoogenboom* Discussant: *Berna Akcali Gur* *VIEW ON YOUTUBE - https://youtu.be/otpwT3KCp1s <http://isoc.live/?action=user_content_redirect&uuid=053f653adff864c4ce889228da675f82613103421032f63de4bfed4bf4be7c91&blog_id=151329629&post_id=18859&user_id=2239291&subs_id=125336&signature=56784f2676d4a742a5913a1b61484f7e&email_name=new-post&user_email=joly@punkcast.com&encoded_url=aHR0cHM6Ly95b3V0dS5iZS9vdHB3VDNLQ3Axcw=>* *PARTICIPATE VIA ZOOM https://bit.ly/4hLwMRm <http://isoc.live/?action=user_content_redirect&uuid=04cf63a36be6a7537db4a8ac6c49a6509668db09f5b0a3e768108eac0cf7913c&blog_id=151329629&post_id=18859&user_id=2239291&subs_id=125336&signature=569e6ea868cbf4419785b268ce49b8dc&email_name=new-post&user_email=joly@punkcast.com&encoded_url=aHR0cHM6Ly9iaXQubHkvNGhMd01SbQ=>* DAY 2 - Thursday February 20. 2025 *08:00 Panel 3* *Technopreneurial coalition vs. state-sponsored dependency: A comparison of two scenarios of digital governance in local China - Yuchao Zhao* *The Evolution of Governance by Internet Infrastructure in Russia Before and After February 2022: New Generations of Controls and Their Effects on New-School Regulation Theory - Liudmila Sivetc* *Towards a genuine governance of Internet?
