A recent statement by the Global Commission on the Stability of Cyberspace (GCSC) has highlighted the growing acceptance and adoption of the concept of a “Public Core” of the Internet, and a norm (adopted by governments and intergovernmental organisations) on non-interference with this Core.
But what exactly is the “Public Core” of the Internet?
The term “Public Core” was defined by GCSC, and we’ll take a look at the GCSC’s own definition later in this post, but first, it’s worth looking back at the Internet’s history.
