Dear colleagues, Please find a new RIPE Labs article submitted by Uta Meier-Hahn: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/uta_meier_hahn/the-regulatory-conditions-of-ip-interconnection?pk_campaign=labs&pk_kwd=list-coopwg This is a follow-up of her earlier work on "Internet Interconnection: Networking in Uncertain Terrain". Abstract: Internet interconnection has often been described as an unregulated field. However, local public regulation is starting to emerge – be it through disclosure regulations, mandatory peering or licensing terms. Due to the networked nature of the internet, local rules may acquire a global scope. Kind regards, Mirjam Kühne RIPE NCC
