Who Controls the Internet? And should they? - Bert Hubert's writings
This is a lightly edited transcript of my keynote over at NANOG 83, so please accept my apologies if some of the wording is not (yet) as clear as it should be! The original video, including Q&A can be found on NANOG’s Youtube channel Hello, and welcome to this presentation on who controls the internet, and if they actually should. As you can see, I cover all grounds here. All kinds of flags are in this presentation and all kinds of companies.

Observations on Modern Computing (The Last 10 Years Were a Misstep)
Observations on Modern Computing (The Last 10 Years Were a Misstep)
I make no secret of the fact that I love old computers, and that I think modern computers have lost their way in terms of providing utility to users. To that end, I write about, and think about, computers and the way to move computers forward, without losing site of the fact that computers should serve their users. I grew up with hand-me-down computers, from Atari to Apple (II GS!) to Dell, and in the process I got to experience a sizable portion of computer history very quickly, in my teen years.

The Groups.io Engineering Philosophy
The Groups.io Engineering Philosophy
Ask my kids and they will tell you, I am the party of no. No dessert before you eat your vegetables. No skipping out on 3rd grade to day trade stonks. No feeding your gremlin after midnight. I apply this principle to Groups.io devops as well.
