Human Rights Protocol Considerations Research Group N. ten Oever
Internet-Draft ARTICLE 19

Freedom of Association on the Internet
draft-tenoever-hrpc-association-01
Abstract
This document aims to scope the relation between Internet protocols
and the rights to freedom of assembly and association. The Internet
increasingly mediates our lives and our ability to excercise human
rights. Since Internet protocols play a central role in the
management, development and use of the Internet, the relation between
the mentioned rights should be documented and adverse impacts should
be mitigated. As there have been methods of protest on the Internet
-a form of freedom of assembly- that have proven to be harmful to
connectivity and infrastructure, such as DDoS attacks, this text aims
to document forms of protest, association and assembly that do not
have a negative impact on the Internet infrastructure.
