Internet Governance and the Domain Name System: Issues for Congress

CRS – Internet Governance and the Domain Name System: Issues for Congress. Lennard G. Kruger, Specialist in Science and Technology Policy. January 2, 2013

  • “The Internet is often described as a “network of networks” because it is not a single physical entity, but hundreds of thousands of interconnected networks linking hundreds of millions of computers around the world.

As the Internet grows and becomes more pervasive in all aspects of modern society, the question of how it should be governed becomes more pressing.”
