TWO VILLAGES AT THE BASE OF EVEREST NEED FIBER INTERNET. YOU CAN HELP THEM.
Donate Today
TOGETHER WITH OUR GLOBAL COMMUNITY WE EXTEND THE INTERNET’S REACH AND PROTECT
ITS LONG-TERM WELL-BEING.
WE HELP GROW THE INTERNET.
Nearly half the world’s population isn’t connected. We are committed to closing
the digital divide by bringing together the people and technology needed to give
everyone the access they want.
WE MAKE THE INTERNET STRONGER.
We advocate for a secure, trusted and more resilient Internet. We defend the
Internet from those who could make it less secure, less resilient, and less
open.
WE SHAPE THE INTERNET OF THE FUTURE.
We are a global movement that champions an Internet of hope, opportunity, and
celebrates humanity. But Internet access is no longer a luxury. It is a virtual
lifeline. Be part of the solution.
WHAT IS THE SPLINTERNET?
It’s where the Internet fragments into isolated networks, masquerading as the
Internet you’ve come to rely on.
In these shadow versions, the free flow of information is suppressed by
governments and corporations, and you can’t trust the information in front of
you.
Learn How You Can Stop It
GEORGE SADOWSKY HONORED WITH THE 2022 JONATHAN B. POSTEL SERVICE AWARD
Longtime Internet champion Dr. George Sadowsky is the 2022 Jonathan B. Postel
Service Awardee.
Selected for his leadership of the Internet Society Developing Countries
Workshops in the 1990s, he helped enable the extension of the Internet to almost
all developing countries.
LOW EARTH ORBIT SATELLITES
Lots of Promise—But Also Concerns
Companies like SpaceX, Amazon, OneWeb, and Telesat are racing to launch large
systems of low Earth orbit satellites to provide Internet access. Can they help
close the digital divide, or will they create more challenges?
SECURING INTERNET ROUTING
The world needs a secure and resilient Internet.
Discover how trusted collaboration and the industry-supported MANRS initiative
keeps it that way— through actions that can address the most common threats in
the global routing system.
