Vint Cerf explains...Who runs the Internet's address book?

[@Google]

Like any proud father, vint cerf is excited to tell you about his kid, the Internet. Specifically, he wants to talk about who manages the Internet’s address book. He even made a video to explain. Check it out: www.google.com/takeaction/vint/video.html

[@RonHelton]

Thank you Mr. Cerf for explaining this in a clear and concise video.

[@DrewKollasch]

I think I could listen to Vint talk about the internet all day! :D

[@MariEngelhart]

Very well done and comprehensible - thank you for explaining this. Hopefully confusion and rumors will be put to rest.

I saw Vint Cerf talk at a meeting at the NSA in late 2008 or early 2009. He was being asked for his opinion on using hadoop (an open source project mimicking some google technology) at the NSA. One thing he did say was that he was there as a salesman, to sell google products to the NSA.

(Dr Philip Emeagwali)......but truly we need the internet to remain open otherwise , innovation will slow down, but the emerging markets of China,India and Africa hold allot of promise.

[@ebrimasc]

Awesome video. ..Thank you Google

[@TubeofDestiny]

Would love to hear what Vint Cerf think about the peering business and how it's affecting the Net Neutrality... with big players like Google throttling down ISPs not paying them for their top tier premium access. - Net Neutrality was already killed by service providers, the current legislative drama is only about expanding (or not) the lack of Net Neutrality to the ISPs themselves: services won't be discriminating between ISPs only, they will also discriminate between the different customers of the same ISP. To get a proper bandwidth on a service, you'll have to pick the right ISP (that will pay up the big players on the peering business), and pay for the right Internet access package - if you get any of these two elements wrong, BOOM too bad for you, the service won't work properly or at all (= everything involving streaming). - But in the case of KZbin (owned by Google), we could still wait for the video to load, right ? Wrong ! Google lowered the bandwidth available to these "rogue" ISPs down to 30-50 KB/s (so it takes forever even for a 360p video), while entirely blocking buffering, and updating that buffering-block whenever people would make extensions and scripts to force buffering again. The only solution left is downloading the video with an extension/script (even if Google keeps blocking that) on our computer, view it (through VLC or MPC), and finally delete it - all manually - because Google refuses to let its users buffer videos (even short ones below 5 minutes). KZbin is just a cumbersome video file storage website for all these users. In the end, what happen if you picked the wrong ISP, and don't have the expertise to download the video files ? Too bad, you better switch for the other ISP paying up Google, or supported by Google, if you ever want to use KZbin without the experience being a nightmare. It's good to be the Monopoly King, right ? - Nobody is fooled by all these "Take Action !" marketing noise (with a few nice IT celebrities), Google is only defending legal Net Neutrality when it's endangering their 'de facto' power over the actual Net Neutrality: "Don't allow ISPs to throttle me down ! I'm the only one who should be allowed to throttle the ISPs down, through abusive peering practices, don't let smaller competitors and the ISPs have that power too !". The hypocrisy is palpable with Google these days, it's so in-your-face that it's no longer funny. Keeping the "Don't be evil" motto is now an insult to us, Internet users. Oh, so far Google doesn't care at all and can continue to do so - but trust me, the day an organization, supported by competitors, will decide to cut Google in pieces, people will cheer, the nerds will cheer, everyone will cheer, and Google will go down in history as "yet another abusive company". In 50 years, practically all current employees and shareholders will be deceased, or living their last years in a retirement home - what will they left to this world, that will matter to humanity ? Their generic mansion, their generic yatch ? Their blog archives that nobody will read ? Or an actual Net Neutrality that they actually defended, even if it meant not getting their +30 percent bonus or promotion ? Google dropped the ball long ago - it's never too late to pick it up, but I don't think they'll ever do it - hands full of cash, they'll let the baby drown.

A huge internet gaint introducing his great grandfather

[@RahemeMatthie]

I learnt alot from this video

[@eahp02]

Google was founded in September, 1998. Jon Postel died a few weeks later, in October, 1998. So I don't really think it is fair to cite google.com as an example of a domain name connected by Jon. Google was *not* the founder of the internet, contrary to what Vint Cerf is trying to make us believe.

On the seventh day, God looked over his creation and said "Damn, this place is fine, I'm a SCIENTIST!". Hearing this , the angel gabriel said "Lo indeed this place is fine, but where hence shall we post thine cat pictures". God replied "I told you homey, I'm a natural scientist, not a computer scientist", and with a puff of magic god willed into being the comp-sci professor and thus came forth Vint Cerf, bearing lulz and catte pics and built the internet and so the heavens rejoiced and created dank memes

I didn't get it, what is vint cerf trying to justify in this video? It goes like: What we are trying to do is a good thing and it will make things better. And why he says "us" when refering to the US government? Can't he write a blog explaining what is the issue and what are the arguments, instead of making a video for the children?

[@swedishdissident3406]

The russinens built their railway system so the enimy could not easly invade via the rail network. This principal could be applied to the interner each country has its own ip protocol and translation of ipadresses is done via gateways at the isp. As society is dependant on the internet specialist uses especially defence these areas of the internet should not use the same protocol as the public.

it takes a long time to reach maturity.. humanity that is. This presentation is not for kids (or is it?) even though the "main character" is a metaphorical child. The presentation style annoyed me. "Everything is fine, go back to sleep" -Bill Hicks .

[@oliingram3567]

Wasn't the internet invented by Sir Tim Berners Lee?

[@migfire]

+Oli Ingram He didn't, but he expanded upon it by inventing the world wide web, which isn't the same thing as the internet. However, neither of these can single-handedly be labeled as the entire virtual world we use today, so Tim Berners Lee also has a major place in the history books. Old comment I know, but it's a common misconception that tends to start lame fights between the US and UK. I'd rather me answer and tell it like it is than leave the door open for someone unfairly biased to come in.

[@DanAnderson]

I think Vint is a bit naive about democracy. If we let 7 billion people control our outcomes - it will tend to be towards less freedom, not more. We, somewhat ridiculously, tend to think of the bad ideas as coming from, our favorite boogie-man, the government. The reality is that, with some clear outliers, the bad ideas (and the governments) reflect the true composite will of the people. It hardly matters in the US. It hardly matters in the EU. But there are plenty of places that will happily vote their rights away in the name of nationalism, religion, etc.

[@55dpc]

How is the internet free? Also it's also very exposed for the unneeded to see. Also cameras are used much the same way in our daily lives.
