The Chinese government and the Chinese telecommunications companies such as Huawei under its control are proposing a \u201cNew IP\u201d addressing system for the internet to replace TCP\/IP. The New IP system includes top-down checks and balances and such features as a \u201cshut up command\u201d that would allow a central controller to stop packets from being received or sent by a target \u201cNew IP address.\u201d The China led proposal was first unveiled at the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) meeting in September 2019. The associated power point presentation<\/a> and formal proposal<\/a> have been made available by Financial Times.<\/p>\n

In it, the Chinese government and its state controlled telecommunications service and hardware providers (i.e. Huawei) make the case that TCP\/IP is broken and won\u2019t scale for use in the future internet which will include things like holographs and space-terrestrial communications. China argues that these new technologies on the old system would require \u201ccomplex translators\u201d and increase the overall cost to society.<\/p>\n

The New IP proposal admits that TCP\/IP has \u201cachieved relatively good security.\u201d However, China feels that this \u201cis still far away from what we actually require in the future.\u201d If the security is admittedly relatively good, what could possibly be missing? Apparently, the answer to that question is \u201ctrust.\u201d The proposal reads:<\/p>\n

\u201cAs universal connectivity develops, a better security and trust model need to be designed and deployed to provide a stable, trustworthy, and long-term environment for people to use.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Let\u2019s be clear: Trust should have no part in this. Especially this type of absolute trust in centralized institutions \u2013 that have repeatedly proven to be unworthy of such trust \u2013 which is exactly what China is trying to force down the internet world\u2019s throat. Let\u2019s not forget that China is the same country that already forces real name and identification<\/a> to be tied to all internet or phone services and also runs a censorship campaign against the open internet so large that it\u2019s called the Great Firewall<\/a>.<\/p>\n

NATO report warns against China\u2019s \u201cNew IP\u201d system and its proposed Splinternet<\/h2>\n

Oxford Information Labs (Oxil) has prepared a research report for the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) that does not look kindly on the \u201cNew IP\u201d proposal or the breakneck pace that it is being rushed through the approval process. The report authors from Oxil spoke with and provided an advance copy of the NATO report to Infosecurity<\/a>. Oxil summed up the problem with New IP concisely:<\/p>\n

\u201cNew IP would centralize control over the network into the hands of telecoms operators, all of which are either state run or state-controlled in China. So, internet infrastructure would become an arm of the Chinese state.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The New IP model also takes pot shots at current centralized parts of the internet, such as the Domain Name System (DNS), and offers Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) solutions under the guise of promoting a Decentralized Internet Infrastructure (DII) to address them. While that may sound like the holy grail of blockchain technology and true decentralization that real public blockchain technologies such as Handshake provide, what is being proposed by China is absolutely not that. Oxil notes that the proposed DLTs would undoubtedly be under Chinese government control \u2013 bringing about that call for \u201ctrust\u201d again. Oxil explained to Infosecurity:<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is not uncommon for language of \u2018trust\u2019 to replace \u2018security\u2019 in Chinese DII-related discussions. This is concerning because it indicates that the principle of \u2018security by design\u2019 \u2013 at least in the Western context \u2013 is not being adopted in DII\u2019s development. In the long-term this could negatively impact cybersecurity globally.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It doesn\u2019t matter how distributed or decentralized parts of a protocol seem on the surface, if there is a centralized command at the top that can issue \u201cshut up commands\u201d to devices supposedly connected to an open internet \u2013 said devices aren\u2019t actually connected to an open internet, are they.<\/p>\n

China will move towards using New IP with or without ITU approval<\/h2>\n

Huawei is apparently already building internet infrastructure that utilices New IP as opposed to TCP\/IP with partner countries, likely in Africa. Besides that, the Chinese proposal for a more top-down controlled internet has also seen support from Russia, Saudi Arabia, and Iran. While Huawei claims that this is an open process, and \u201cis open to scientists and engineers worldwide to participate in and contribute to,\u201d the fact that nobody really knows what\u2019s going on besides those involved in the process is telling. Robert Clark writing for LightReading<\/a> calls New IP Huawei\u2019s real threat to networking and describes the situation aptly:<\/p>\n

\u201cHuawei\u2019s important additional role here is as the major supplier to telcos in many developing countries. It is these governments that are likely the biggest enthusiasts for a manageable Internet without being hectored by Western governments about openness and freedom. And Huawei staff are on hand to help them build it.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

That is to say, Huawei is already going ahead and building New IP systems with \u201cshut up commands\u201d and all \u2013 in effect creating the very network islands that they want to use as a reason that TCP\/IP won\u2019t work. In reality, those seeking to expand network functionality to new types of devices and services such as holograms or satellite comms and more internet of things devices have all the incentive in the world to make something that works with the existing TCP\/IP world. In contrast, China and other countries that do not want true freedom on the internet are all too eager to create a form of the internet that gives them ultimate, centralized control. That China is proffering this New IP model to the free world as an improvement should be expected, and thoroughly ignored and lambasted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
