* If you could make one specific regulatory change relating to internet policy, what would it be?
* What is the next field for explosive growth or progress in the Internet?
* What kind of feasible projects should the Berkman Center, or students, take on next?
* What is the future of relatively closed and tethered platforms such as the iPhone? Could that model ultimately prevail?
* Do you think that social networks have reached full growth or do you see an other model emerging in the future?
* What is the approach that developing countries should take to the net neutrality issue: the US' or Chile and Netherland's?
* How important are broadband policies to the commons-based peer-production model that has been discussed during iLaw sessions?
* How can commons-based peer-production systems help shape/influence state internet regulation?

==Student Option A Assigment responses for 'The Future of the Internet' section==

#iLaw2011 
Option A - Project 
Patrick McKeown

The Future of the Internet section brought iLaw 2011 to a close. It was thought that this slot could be used to tie in some of the most popular unanswered questions from the backchannel, with a view to leaving open the variety of issues raised for future thought and discussion. Naturally, and generally, the section became more conclusory and the unanswered questions that were dredged from the depths of the iLaw question tool archive were left for any of those still interacting online.

Much of the real world room conversation lent itself to summing up iLaw as a whole, with thanks being duly accorded to its organizers, speakers, participants, and all concerned. That is not to say that no questions or ideas were posited for future thought. Alongside the general appraisal of the efforts that went into iLaw 2011, and the remarks regarding the other sections of iLaw, two main themes emerged for consideration.

The first arose in the context of a short revisitation of certain constraints of intellectual property regulation. With the mention of LectureLeaks.com (an “open courseware repository”), the argument of keeping the internet as a largely free forum for future exchanges of ideas and culture flipped on the protagonists. After a brief and (un)natural uneasiness about the prospect of many of their lectures being leaked online, the professors, noting MIT’s ongoing open courseware endeavours, moved toward embracing the idea. The remaining reluctance to fully sanction LectureLeaks was due to the potentiality of conflicts with Harvard’s copyright policies, and more significantly for the professors, the fact that classes are frequently like sanctuaries or fora within which students can develop and sharpen their oration skills without (too much) fear of public attention or oppressive ridicule.

The second theme concerned iLaw itself. In a somewhat Dickensian manner, the discussion covered the iLaws of past, present and future. It was noted that the iLaws of past had a much more limited scope, but as the internet and the conference both developed and issues became broader and more complex, so did the areas under discussion. The iLaw of present was indicative of this growing complexity and demonstrated well the emergence of new issues; Cybersecurity, Privacy, Digital Humanities, Exploring the Arab Spring, and the fascinating and shocking, Minds for Sale. It was proposed that the iLaws of future could perhaps operate in a franchised manner with possible interactivity between the numerous iLaw conferences occurring in various countries simultaneously. It would be hard to say, “Bah, humbug”, to that experimental invocation of the Net’s spirit of global interactivity.

So, with that, the (almost) weeklong iLaw2011 drew to a close and the myriad participants toddled off somewhat confused, perplexed, inspired, tantalized, and probably in need of some sleep. Personally, as a big fan of the multimedia interactivity aspects to the Internet, I was particularly beguiled by some of the activities of those immersed in the digital humanities; but, not nearly as much as I was disconcerted by the potential (mis)uses of the outsourcing possibilities the Internet is beginning to offer through the likes of Amazon’s Mechanical Turk, or the altogether more frightening issues raised by JZ in the Cybersecurity section. Will I ever log on again after that? Maybe, but certainly not without covering up my webcam, changing any and all passwords, and potentially moving to my own island where I can be sure of being free of the real world implications of someone gaining control over any government’s centralized top-secret backup servers, and where I can be sure to avoid having to witness Bruce Willis subsequently, and single-handedly, winning in a fight with an F-35B.

==Ideas for Food For Thought Dinners==
Add your ideas here!

==Food For Thought Dinner Sign-ups==

These dinners allow conference attendees to engage in self-organized informal, themed conversation with other conference participants. Since these dinners are self-organized, there is no limit to the number of dinners that can occur on Thursday evening. We have not yet made reservations for dinners at restaurants; so if any conference attendees are looking to initiate/host a dinner, you are responsible for organizing and making reservations and communications. Also, please note that dinner attendees are expected to pay their own dinner costs.

You may organize and sign-up for Food For Thought dinners below. All iLaw attendees are welcome to add their ideas for interesting topics or propose dinner locations.

Food For Thought dinners tend to work best when the group size is small enough to be intimate (around 8 people or so). For restaurants in Harvard Square, expect approximately a 10-minute walk from Austin. For restaurants in Porter Square, expect approximately a 15 to 20-minute walk from Austin.

The CMLP will host a dinner at Temple Bar (1688 Massachusetts Ave.) on mobile media and citizen journalism, discussing recent events such as the BART phone blackout, arrests of citizens recording video in public (including the recent First Circuit decision in ''Glik v.
