The measure is a counterpart to Rep. Mary Bono Mack’s (R-Calif.) nearly identical resolution in the House.
Proposals to give the U.N.’s International Telecommunication Union (ITU) more control over the governance of the Internet could come up at a conference in Dubai in December.
The proposals, reportedly backed by China, Russia and other U.N. members, would give the international body more control over cybersecurity, data privacy, technical standards and the Web’s address system.
