ITU Internet Regulation and Dubai Conference

The hosts analyze leaked documents from the World Conference on International Telecommunications (WCIT-12) in Dubai. They mock proposals from Russia, China, and Saudi Arabia that attempt to apply old telecommunications rules to the internet, such as "internet roaming" and emergency service notifications. They conclude that the regulators do not understand how the internet actually functions.
