  1. The 8th Korea Internet Governance Forum (KrIGF 2019) met on 5 July 2019 at Sejong University Convention Center in Seoul, running nine community-proposed workshops under the theme 'Sustainable Internet, Governance Together.'<\/strong><\/li>\n
  2. The agenda mirrored Korea's hottest debates of the day: net neutrality and 'network usage fees' in the 5G era, WHOIS registrant privacy after the GDPR, and labour rights in the platform economy.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  3. Network-cost disputes and platform-worker protection are live issues far beyond Korea, and KrIGF showed how a national IGF can put government, industry and civil society at the same table to discuss them.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
