CDT\u2019s Tech Talk is a podcast where we dish on tech and Internet policy, while also explaining what these policies mean to our daily lives. You can find Tech Talk on <\/em>Spotify<\/em><\/a>, <\/em>SoundCloud<\/em><\/a>, <\/em>iTunes<\/em><\/a>, and <\/em>Google Podcasts<\/em><\/a>, as well as <\/em>Stitcher<\/em><\/a> and <\/em>TuneIn<\/em><\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Back in 2018, CDT\u2019s own, Mallory Knodel<\/a>, teamed up with CDT Non-Resident Fellow<\/a> Niels ten Oever<\/a> from the critical infrastructure lab at the University of Amsterdam to present a draft document at the internet standards governing body called the Internet Engineering Task Force, or IETF. This draft outlined a proposal that urged the community to officially reject the use of discriminatory and exclusive language in Internet Drafts and RFCs. As we persistently uncover and confront systemic racial inequality across society<\/a>, it becomes equally vital to guarantee that the fundamental design comprising one of our most critical and democratic technologies \u2013 the internet \u2013 is devoid of any historically racist or prejudiced terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
