Second that. The article lacks the good parts. It's clear that the rapporteur has not figured it out yet how to deal with the root DNS servers, but there is a broad consensus over the strategic autonomy goal [1].
One way or another, EU will force its way. Should it do it by e.g. empowering DIGIT to run root DNS servers?
They will for sure tender it off to a murky consortium, but at least there will be a positive political move.

- oaiey 5y agoI also think that the article is focused too much about the auditing and regulations instead of suggesting a better model.
- EricE 5y agoI love the assumption that there is "a better model." This reeks of the quintessential "let's solve a problem that doesn't exist." Here's an even better and more logical idea - for those who have concerns about the current DNS root server arrangements, what specifically are they? And what would you propose as solutions to their perceived deficiencies? Bonus points if you can raise actual technical arguments and not just feelings.
- oaiey 5y agoFair point. I don't have a different idea in the current geopolitical situation.
- oefrha 5y agoThe article very clearly suggests the current model.
- darkarmani 5y agoCan't the EU run its own DNS infrastructure? Why force its way into something it doesn't even understand?
- sam_lowry_ 5y agoThere was an effort to run EU-based root DNS servers. ORSN, IIRC. Maybe we have so many root servers in EU due to ORSN showing its teeth.
