Finding Yourself on the Internet : proposing a Fait and Reliable System

Abstract

Communication over the Internet is via resources identified by an IP address. Because it is complicated to memorize it, a domain name system was invented. Reading from right to left,domain names are used to identify a computer resource. Originally conceived as a unique identifier allows the link-trust, the domain name system was quickly misappropriated and given place to intense speculation. So, anyone can be anyone on the Internet. Registering a domain name in .COM, .FR or .DOCTOR is easy and does not require any documents. This domain name sales system has created a lucrative marketplace with ICANN, the regulator of domain names. Similarly, it is not possible today to identify with certainty the truth of the information on the Internet according to the domain name used. Thus, a teenager wishing to obtain information on voluntary termination of pregnancy will not be able to identify with certainty a source regarded as neutral.In France, the offense of digital obstruction was thus created. We will first see the system of domain names and their usefulness in the identification of a resource on the Internet. We will define in a second step the lucrative market of domain names and the consequences detrimental to the user. Finally, we propose a fair and reliable identification system, based on the tree of Diderot and d'Alembert
