Uta Meier-Hahn about those who keep the internet running
The internet is currently built of more than 60.000 autonomous systems. Without connectivity among those, the internet simply doesn't exist. Associated HIIG researcher Uta Meier-Hahn looks in her research at the question, how network operators, such as Netflix, Youtube and Deutsche Telekom jointly provide internet connectivity. Since they constantly have to negotiate whether to cooperate or compete with each other, a very particular form of connectivity economics exists. In this episode, Wouter goes on a journey into the very depth of the internet. Together with Uta Meier-Hahn, they explore the architecture of the internet and the objects traded among operators. Also learn about "the networkers", a closely-knit community of internet engineers around the globe who work for "the good of the net".
