Protection of Internet Sovereignty Requires the United Nations

Qing identified cyberspace as a natural extension of sovereignty. The United States is both the inventor and administrator of the Internet. Therefore, one cannot solve the problem of the U.S. control of the Internet in a short period of time. As a result of the recent scandals of Internet monitoring, the issue of Internet sovereignty has caught the attention of international communities. It is difficult to win a confrontation with the United States. Therefore, long term negotiation is a better approach to finding an acceptable solution. “Finally, [countries should] cooperate across the board and work with the United Nations to develop Internet rules and end Internet conflicts.”
