                                                "Impact of the Internet in our world today"

The Internet has forever changed the world in both positive and negative ways. The Internet enables one to find information any time of day, as well as provides convenience with regard to such activities as paying bills. On the other hand, the accessibility of pornography and false information and the occurrence of pop-ups on the Internet serve as negative effects. The Internet today is in many ways seen as an essential to life. It is used in the workplace, school and home. With the invention of the Internet the world was forever changed in both good a bad ways. Many positive results have come from the invention of the Internet. One positive that has resulted from the Internet is the fact that you are always able to access research information anytime of the day or night. The Internet has every kind of information that you could possibly want, there is everything from how-to's to high level medical research information.
2. ISOC -> The User Centric Internet (UCI) is a new ISOC Public Policy program designed to reassert, in debates and discussions related to the future of the Internet, the importance of the design values and fundamental principles that have underpinned the Internet's success.ISOC will continue to play its central role in the Internet governance discussions ensuring that developments do not imperil or hinder the Internet's development, deployment, administration, or management. ISOC will show leadership in governance discussions, particularly in the Internet Governance Forum.ISOC will operate collaboratively and inclusively, working with governments, national and international organisations, Civil Society, the private sector, and other parties to reach decisions about the Internet that uphold our core values. In this work, ISOC will be guided by our belief that the future of the Internet depends upon preserving the ability to connect, speak, innovate, share, choose, and trust.
3.IAB -> The Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB) is comprised of more than 500 leading media and technology companies who are responsible for selling 86% of online advertising in the United States. On behalf of its members, the IAB is dedicated to the growth of the interactive advertising marketplace, of interactive’s share of total marketing spend, and of its members’ share of total marketing spend. The IAB educates marketers, agencies, media companies and the wider business community about the value of interactive advertising. Working with its member companies, the IAB evaluates and recommends standards and practices and fields critical research on interactive advertising. Founded in 1996, the IAB is headquartered in New York City with a Public Policy office in Washington, D.C.
4.IESG ->
The IESG is responsible for technical management of IETF activities and the Internet standards process. It administers the process according to the rules and procedures that have been ratified by the ISOC trustees [see RFC 2026/BCP 9, The Internet Standards Process].  The IESG is directly responsible for the actions associated with entry into and movement along the Internet "standards track," including final approval of specifications as Internet Standards.
The IESG consists of the Area Directors (ADs) who are selected by the Nominations Committee (NomCom) and are appointed for two years. The process for choosing the members of the IESG is detailed in RFC 2727/BCP 10, "IAB and IESG Selection, Confirmation, and Recall Process: Operation of the Nominating and Recall Committees."
5.IRTF->The IRTF is a composed of a number of focused and long-term Research Groups. These groups work on topics related to Internet protocols, applications, architecture and technology. Research Groups have the stable long term membership needed to promote the development of research collaboration and teamwork in exploring research issues. Participation is by individual contributors, rather than by representatives of organizations.
The IRTF is managed by the IRTF Chair in consultation with the Internet Research Steering Group (IRSG). The IRSG membership includes the IRTF Chair, the chairs of the various Research Groups and other individuals (“members at large”) from the research community selected by the IRTF Chair.
The RFC Editor publishes documents from the IRTF and its Research Groups on the IRTF Stream (RFC 5743).
6.IETF->
The goal of the IETF is to make the Internet work better.                                
The mission of the IETF is to make the Internet work better by producing high quality, relevant technical documents that influence the way people design, use, and manage the Internet.
7. IANA ->
The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) is the body responsible for coordinating some of the key elements that keep the Internet running smoothly. Whilst the Internet is renowned for being a worldwide network free from central coordination, there is a technical need for some key parts of the Internet to be globally coordinated – and this coordination role is undertaken by IANA.
Specifically, IANA allocates and maintains unique codes and numbering systems that are used in the technical standards (“protocols”) that drive the Internet.
8.InterNIC->By the 1990s, most of the growth of the Internet was in the non-defense sector, and even outside the United States.[5] Therefore, the US Department of Defense would no longer fund registration services outside of the mil domain. In 1993, the US National Science Foundation, after a competitive bidding process in 1992,[7] created the Internet Network Information Center, known as InterNIC, to manage the allocations of addresses and awarded the contract to three organizations: Network Solutions provided registration services, AT&T provided directory and database services, and General Atomics provided information services.[8] Later, General Atomics was disqualified from the contract after a review found their services not conforming to the standards of its contract.[9] General Atomics' InterNIC functions were assumed by AT&T. AT&T discontinued InterNIC services on March 31, 1998 after their cooperative agreement with NSF expired.[10]
9.ICANN-> To reach another person on the Internet you have to type an address into your computer - a name or a number. That address has to be unique so computers know where to find each other. ICANN coordinates these unique identifiers across the world. Without that coordination we wouldn't have one global Internet.
ICANN was formed in 1998. It is a not-for-profit public-benefit corporation with participants from all over the world dedicated to keeping the Internet secure, stable and interoperable. It promotes competition and develops policy on the Internet’s unique identifiers.
ICANN doesn’t control content on the Internet. It cannot stop spam and it doesn't deal with access to the Internet. But through its coordination role of the Internet's naming system, it does have an important impact on the expansion and evolution of the Internet.
