Betreff: Re: [NCSG-Discuss] FYI: EC appoints 39 experts [one from ICANN] to a new high level group on fake news and online disinformation.
Personally, I am not worried at all about Veni Markovski being the rep
here, he has been around a long time and has a great reputation. He was
originally on CPSR. I also think it is important that ICANN have
representation here, to defend against any bright ideas folks may come
up with to make ICANN the "one-stop-shopping" centre approach that some
parties have wanted/expected it to take. I do think we should invite
Mr. Markovski to brief us in the future on what is going on with this group.
Kind regards,
Stephanie Perrin
