Utilization structure of internet

Abstract

To provide an information distribution license, an address in which rights are restricted and a structure of the Internet in which a person who does not have at least knowledge about various human rights and the person who does not read a law, an agreement, etc. do not transmit information for the public on the Internet, and a person who cannot disclose an identity (for example, a person of a criminal organization, etc.) does not transmit the information for the public on the Internet.SOLUTION: Rights in which information can be transmitted for the public on the Internet are licensed. A utilization structure of the Internet is set as a structure in which the information cannot be transmitted for the public on the Internet when the license does not be acquired. Accordingly, an address which is substantially restricted to only browsing and one-to-one task is provided.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 6

Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a license for disseminating information to the public on the Internet, an address with rights substantially restricted to browsing and one-to-one tasks only, an Internet structure comprising said license and said right-restricted address, and an Internet structure for protecting various human rights comprising said license and said right-restricted address. [Background technology]

[0002] The Internet began to spread widely around the year 2000, and people all over the world began to create their own homepages and use the Internet to widely disseminate information. Since then, the Internet has continued to develop, enriching people's lives. On the other hand, there have been a number of cases where people have had their human rights violated due to the Internet, and it is also true that, more than 20 years after the widespread use of the Internet, it has come to inflict unprecedented pain and threats on people's lives. The Internet is now in an environment where anyone can become a victim at any time. The reality is that everyone is more susceptible to crime.

[0003] Social networking sites (SNS) developed rapidly in the 2010s, and in recent years, we have reached a stage where AI is becoming widespread in the context of the internet. The benefits of SNS depend largely on the individual's purpose for using it, but unfortunately, it is not always used in a healthy manner. Even on a global scale, when SNS is used for group or political purposes, non-participants are more likely to be victims of various human rights violations, and problems have arisen that accelerate division and crime. Furthermore, even when SNS is used commercially, fraud and other crimes have occurred. Furthermore, because AI requires a large amount of existing data in the learning process, in some fields the very existence of AI may be a violation of rights, making it susceptible to various human rights violations, such as portrait rights, copyrights, and designs, and the risk increases even more when AI becomes widespread on the Internet. The issue of various human rights violations via the Internet is a global threat.

[0004] Around the year 2000, the Internet began with specifications that allowed anyone to freely upload anything to the Internet. Even today, the structure and methods of use have not changed.

[0005] Over the past 20 years or so, we have reached a stage where we have accumulated experience that various problems arise when anyone, regardless of their level of education or whether they are a criminal or not, can post anything on the Internet, even if they do not belong to a company or other organization as described in paragraph

[0007] below, or even if they are not connected through a company or other organization. It is empirically understood that the traditional structure of Internet usage may increase the connections between people who commit crimes and others, or even increase the number of people who commit crimes. It is also empirically understood that such people are particularly likely to be more easily connected.

[0006] Under the conventional structure described in paragraph

[0004] above, the only way to deal with this problem was for victims (individuals or corporations, etc.) to directly or indirectly negotiate with specific telecommunications service providers or search engines to have their content removed after the incident (Non-Patent Documents 1-3). Furthermore, in recent years, the United States has been trying to impose legal restrictions on children (such as age restrictions and usage time restrictions), but these are limited in scope and are merely legal restrictions (Non-Patent Document 4).

[0007] Furthermore, before the widespread use of the Internet, the distribution of information was left to publishers and the broadcasting industry, and self-regulation was carried out based on the corporate ethics of publishers and broadcasting companies, which were the collective brainpower of various companies under the Civil Code, Copyright Act, Broadcasting Act, etc., so such threats did not exist in the first place. Furthermore, even when problems did occur, they were extremely limited, involving only a few public figures or rare cases of carelessness. Furthermore, it goes without saying that publishers and broadcasting companies would intentionally expose information to the public for long periods of time or indiscriminately harm a large number of citizens without their knowledge. Because of this structure, there was little opportunity for a problem to trigger other problems.

[0008] Furthermore, in addition to the Constitution, Civil Code, Criminal Code, and Commercial Code, there have long been laws such as the Copyright Act, Design Act, and Trademark Act, and the Unfair Competition Prevention Act was enacted in 1995, the Personal Information Protection Act in 2003, and the Act on the Promotion of the Creation, Protection, and Exploitation of Content in 2004. However, some Internet users simply do not bother to acquire such knowledge. Even if they have knowledge, it is common for individual users and criminal organizations to appear who think that it is okay as long as they do not get caught, that it is okay as long as they do not get sued, that they can think about it after they are sued, that it is okay to be sued, that they can make money until they are sued, or that the more lawsuits there are the more profit they will make.

[0009] As long as the information is not seen by internet viewers, it is possible to consider imposing the same kind of restrictions on search engine operators that have traditionally been imposed on publishers and the broadcasting industry, but in the current internet usage environment, where approximately 3 billion people (as internet users, from data from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications) around the world, who are not even employees of the companies in question, can freely post anything they want, at any time, it would be unreasonable to impose such an obligation on search engine operators. Furthermore, even if an obligation were imposed, it would be impossible to fulfill it in reality due to manpower issues. Google (registered trademark), for example, is trying to rely on AI to address these issues, but there are concerns that it is using incomplete AI to conduct experiments on the public without their consent. Furthermore, by the time AI can perfectly perform human tasks, it will be too late, so AI alone will not be able to fulfill obligations. There are even risks in entrusting AI to AI, particularly in the areas of human rights and commercial transactions. Furthermore, many people who lack a fundamental understanding of AI may feel helpless and stressed, which could lead to a deterioration in public safety. AI is merely a secondary tool. Furthermore, in the case of for-profit organizations such as Google (registered trademark), whose sources of business income are information and advertising, it is best to include as much information and advertising as possible, so leaving vague regulations to for-profit organizations such as Google (registered trademark) will make it difficult to prevent borders that prioritize their own interests.Furthermore, if additional taxes are imposed under the Act on Promotion of Competition Relating to Specified Software Used on Smartphones (Smartphone Software Competition Promotion Act), it is expected that a vicious cycle will arise in which they will be less able to devote manpower to various human rights violation issues.

[0010] Furthermore, as mentioned in the previous paragraph, there are currently approximately 3 billion Internet users, while the world population is approximately 8 billion. Considering this, it is inevitable that the number of Internet users will continue to increase, and there is a strong need to take some kind of fundamental measures.

[0011] As mentioned above, there has never been a structure in the world that could prevent people from disseminating information to the public via the Internet in order to prevent various crimes and violations of human rights on the Internet. [Prior art documents] [Non-patent literature]

[0012] [Non-Patent Document 1] Google (registered trademark) Support (https: / / support.Google.com) [Non-Patent Document 2] JIJI.com, "Google Removes Problematic Ads, Up 6% to 5.5 Billion, Strengthening Countermeasures with Generative AI," March 28, 2024 (https: / / www.jiji.com / jc / article?k=2024032800150&g=int&utm_source=yahoo&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=link_back_edit_vb) [Non-Patent Document 3] AERAdot., "90 Doctors File Class Action Lawsuit Against Google, Claiming to Have Been Harmed by Ignoring Reviews, Including Cases of Attempts to Avoid Payment of Medical Fees," February 29, 2024 (https: / / dot.asahi.com / articles / - / 214869?page=1) [Non-Patent Document 4] JIJI.com, "Expanding Social Media Restrictions on Children Concerns about Negative Effects on Mental Health - US," March 27, 2024 (https: / / www.jiji.com / jc / article?k=2024032700741&g=int) Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0013] Compared to traditional media such as books, magazines, television, and radio, the Internet has the characteristic of spreading information far and wide, instantly, and remaining publicly available indefinitely unless the sender of the information deletes it. Furthermore, the social credibility and social rights of individuals and corporations can easily be eroded given the scale of society mediated by the Internet, the permanence or fixity of the information mediated by the Internet, and the proliferation of information mediated by the Internet. Under such conditions, it is too late to delete information after damage has been caused. Furthermore, because the ability to delete information effectively belongs solely to the sender, the perpetrator gains real power, which can lead to the problem of exacerbating the damage.

[0014] If the perpetrators, criminal organizations, specified telecommunications service providers, or search engine operators do not delete the information, there is the option of filing a lawsuit, but in the current situation, particularly in Japan, there is a need to preserve evidence through evidence preservation, which could actually lead to the problem of information related to various human rights violations remaining publicly available on the Internet, or even remaining publicly available while the issue needs to be discussed.

[0015] When the victim is a stranger or organization, filing a lawsuit without careful consideration risks making them a target for resentment or venting anger, so people are forced to decide that it is better not to get involved with strangers or organizations.In order to avoid further conflict or to avoid becoming acquainted with the criminal, it is common for victims to avoid filing a lawsuit or to pay money (for example, the so-called ``deletion business'').

[0016] It is also a fact of life that some people have developed a tendency to find pleasure in the misfortune of others, and it is also a fact of life that when one person commits a human rights violation, others will follow suit. The Internet is an environment in which such people can easily connect, be influenced, and increase in number. The existence of the term "opportunistic thief," similar crimes occurring around the same time as other heinous crimes, the increase in human rights violations on the Internet, and the daily flow of images of conflicts mean that various human rights issues and violence are on the rise, all of which suggest that this is a human nature that is widely understood empirically.

[0017] We are also at a stage where we have empirically learned that social media has a negative impact on children's development (Non-Patent Document 4). Furthermore, children who are still immature tend to be more likely to get involved in crime.

[0018] The concept of controlled goods (Article 48 of the Foreign Exchange and Foreign Trade Act) is also useful as a reference. Advanced technology must not be handed over to anyone who violates public order and morals.

[0019] The economic loss of people devoting their energy, time, and money to repairing the damage caused by these various human rights violations during their limited time in life is significant. Even if there are people who are profiting from this behind the scenes, it is against public order and morals. For the further development of humanity, it is essential that each and every person be able to enjoy more free, useful, and creative time within the limited time we have in our lives. Furthermore, creating an environment in which the Internet, a means of enriching people's lives, can be used more healthily and to the fullest extent possible, fostering communication rather than division, and contributing to the development of industry by revitalizing the economy and creating a truly prosperous world through the combined efforts of all humanity. [Means for solving the problem]

[0020] The right to transmit information to the public over the Internet will be licensed. The structure of Internet usage will be changed so that information cannot be transmitted to the public over the Internet without obtaining the relevant license. Accordingly, addresses will be established that are essentially limited to viewing and one-to-one tasks.

[0021] The aforementioned dissemination of information to the public refers to, but is not limited to, creating a homepage on the Internet, posting on message boards or social networking sites, selling products, or placing advertisements (hereinafter these will be referred to as "the relevant postings, etc.").

[0022] The license is not limited to formal exams such as qualification exams or exams of any kind, but the exam content for the license covers matters related to the Internet and various human rights.

[0023] More specifically, the license test concerns factors of the Internet that exacerbate infringements, such as the reach of information transmitted over the Internet and the fact that information on the Internet is permanently available to the public unless deleted by the sender.

[0024] Furthermore, the content of the license exam should include Articles 13 and 14 of the Constitution and related civil, criminal, and commercial codes, as well as the Broadcasting Act, the Personal Information Protection Act and related laws, the Copyright Act, the Design Act, and the Trademark Act. Furthermore, the Unfair Competition Prevention Act, the Act on Promotion of Creation, Protection, and Exploitation of Content, the Act on Specified Commercial Transactions, and the Secondhand Goods Dealers Act, among other laws. Naturally, these laws should be adapted to new establishments, amendments, and repeal. For example, the Act on Limitation of Liability for Damages of Specified Telecommunications Service Providers and Disclosure of Caller Information (Provider Liability Limitation Act) could be abolished if the license is established. In particular, the provisions regarding requests for caller information disclosure (especially Article 5) should be abolished, given the risk of directly connecting unarmed and unprivileged ordinary citizens with suspicious strangers. Careful consideration is needed as to whether or not to include them. It would also be effective to include curriculum guidelines for the above areas at the level of compulsory education. The rights also fall within the various human rights domains, including personality rights, portrait rights, privacy rights, the right to control one's own information, the right to be forgotten, the right to disconnect, moral rights of authors, copyrights, designs, trademarks, etc. (Hereinafter, these will be referred to as "the various human rights in question.") These rights should be left to the laws and regulations of each country.

[0025] The license exam also covers the relationship between the Internet and the various human rights in question, such as the loss of social credibility and the worsening of the loss of social rights due to the long-term public disclosure of the violations of the various human rights in question.

[0026] In addition, the test content for this license involves providing specific examples and asking candidates to choose whether or not it is acceptable to make the information public on the Internet or on social media.

[0027] Naturally, the basic premise is that the content encourages people to recognize that the various human rights violations in question should not be committed against innocent people or people who have not caused harm to themselves.

[0028] In addition, the exam content for this license involves discussing current issues and mock cases related to the Internet and various human rights fields, and the issues in these cases. Editorials are the most effective. Also, a combination of these.

[0029] The ideal body to administer the license examinations would be the Japan Broadcasting Corporation (Broadcasting Act, Chapter 3) or the Broadcasting Ethics and Program Improvement Organization. Since broadcasting now uses the Internet, it is possible that they are already overlapping fields, but if they are too busy, it would be preferable to limit it to an advisory or affiliated organization, and to establish a new organization with standards comparable to those set out in Articles 6 and 7 of the Broadcasting Act, which pertain to the Broadcast Program Review Body, and Articles 30 to 41 of the Broadcasting Act, which pertain to the Japan Broadcasting Corporation's Board of Governors. Furthermore, given that the ethics of the broadcasting industry have come under scrutiny in recent years, it would be preferable for the organization to be managed by a public-private partnership in collaboration with the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (especially the Board of Education).

[0030] The license also includes not only licenses, laws, and contracts, but also personal information such as ID cards, addresses, domain names, keys, encryption, electronic certificates, ID / passwords, programs, pricing, and any combination thereof, but is not limited to these if they have the same function as the license. For example, the program is intended to include not only standalone programs but also programs sometimes linked by laws or contracts. The license also includes personal information that has passed the process through a control means that only identifies and authenticates personal information at the level of an ID card, etc., as exemplified in paragraph

[0041] below, and passing a quiz based on a control means that prevents users from creating an account or logging in to an SNS account unless they pass a quiz when creating or logging in, or prevents users from posting unless they pass a quiz before posting.

[0031] Addresses whose rights are effectively limited to viewing and one-to-one tasks by the license include conventional IP addresses that are effectively restricted as described above by the license, conventional IP addresses that have the above restriction added by a program, and addresses with new names that have the above restriction added by a program, but names that have the same function as the addresses are not limited to these. The addresses in question also include addresses used by people or devices who would no longer appear on the site without presenting personal information if a control measure were in place that only identifies and authenticates personal information at the level of an ID card, as exemplified in paragraph

[0041] below. It also includes addresses linked to unsuccessful users based on a control measure that prevents users from creating an account or logging in unless they pass a quiz when creating or logging in to an SNS account, or prevents users from posting posts unless they pass a quiz before posting. It also includes addresses linked to deleted posts based on a control measure that deletes existing posts from users who have not submitted or passed the quiz for a certain period of time, for example, from the public within one week to one month of the specified period. (By the way, to be clear, this does not mean that it is possible to identify people who have previously disrupted public order and morals with certainty; it is possible that this could include people who have taken this opportunity to stop using the relevant posts on SNS, or shared devices, so if you want to identify people who have previously disrupted public order and morals, you will need to take steps such as comparing the addresses linked to the problematic posts with other received information, or focusing on addresses that are frequently used.)

[0032] Furthermore, an age limit should be set for the age at which the license can be obtained. For example, based on current knowledge in the United States (Non-Patent Document 4), the age limit is 14 years or older. However, this is just one example, and the age limit is not limited to this, and it is preferable to set an age appropriate to the laws and educational systems of each country. In addition, since the Internet can be used for a variety of purposes, a buffer will be provided so that even those under the legal age can post content under the supervision of the license holder, such as a parent, guardian, or representative.

[0033] Furthermore, the structure that makes it impossible to transmit information to the public on the Internet without obtaining the license in question is an Internet structure that consists of the license in question and addresses whose rights are essentially limited to viewing and one-to-one tasks.

[0034] Furthermore, the structure described in the preceding paragraph preferably includes a mechanism or program for other license holders to monitor each other and issue warnings and deletions in preparation for the case where the license holder violates the license. The license holders include the license management organization. It also preferably includes a mechanism or program that can suspend the license of a license violator who violates the license. The mechanism or program for other license holders to monitor each other and issue warnings and deletions is, for example, a mechanism or program that requires all license holders to report any violations to the license management organization, and the license management organization issues warnings and deletions based on that notification.

[0035] Furthermore, since one address may be allocated to multiple users, such as per household, in households where licensees and non-licensees coexist, it is preferable to impose on the licensee the obligation to manage the household, etc., and to have a license that has not only an address but also a multi-layered locking mechanism. For example, the address assigned to a family household consisting of multiple people, including the licensee, may be that of claim 2, and when the licensee in that household writes, etc., authentication through verification by the license management organization may be required.

[0036] Furthermore, since addresses are not portable and their allocations change depending on the circumstances of various people, it is preferable to prepare two or more types of addresses for each existing IP address, depending on operational and loophole prevention needs, and have Internet service providers (ISPs) and the Japan Network Information Center (JPNIC) select and determine the address to be assigned depending on whether or not the license is presented when acquiring an address. Making address names or numbers visible to users that are different from the actual address can prevent human error from an operational standpoint and block routes where users directly use the actual address for abuse, which can be useful in enhancing the effectiveness of the license. Considering that IPv6 has reached 128 bits, addresses that combine country-specific characters are also a candidate.

[0037] Also, since it is thought that many people already know their current IP addresses, if traditional IPv4 addresses are to be used, it is preferable to randomly reassign IPv4 addresses and then create new addresses.

[0038] As will be explained in paragraph

[0044] below, we are currently in the transition period from IPv4 to IPv6, so it would be preferable to take this opportunity to create new addresses for IPv6.

[0039] More preferably, especially in private Internet address contracts, from the viewpoint of effective use of Internet space and prevention of unexpected misuse of IP addresses, it is preferable to have a system in which addresses are portable, that is, addresses are fixed to individuals. One way to fix addresses is, for example, if the content of use requested by an individual when signing a contract with an ISP or JPNIC matches the license presented by the individual, the ISP or JPNIC will programmatically link an address with the corresponding specifications to that individual's unique address.

[0040] Furthermore, if addresses are made portable as in the previous paragraph, or if ISPs, JPNIC, or newly established license management organizations determine that even in the current system linked to households or fixed terminals, they can reliably control it through human operation at the time of contract, the option to set multiple addresses as shown in the first sentence of paragraph

[0036] above will no longer be necessary. Furthermore, while the license is not limited to addresses, if the license were based on addresses, it is conceivable that, for example, posting on social media would be prevented on LANs or free Wi-Fi (registered trademarks) that are not directly subscribed to by the user. However, given that many social media users have smartphones, this would not be a problem. However, since posting while traveling is expected to be a common occurrence, albeit with varying frequency, it would be more preferable for addresses allocated to shared facilities to have a means of unlocking the license that is not based on addresses. For example, the addresses allocated to shared facilities could be those described in claim 2, and when a license holder posts, they would be required to undergo authentication via verification by the license management organization. Furthermore, if the system of the present invention were to be established in each country, it is conceivable that it would be inconvenient for users to have to obtain the relevant license for each country in order to write information. However, it may be possible to make fine adjustments, such as granting the license to short-term visitors who already have the relevant license in their own country by asking only a few simple questions, in a manner similar to that used when obtaining a visa or a driver's license. Furthermore, if this system were to be established only in Japan and fully implemented in Japan, it is anticipated that foreigners who visit Japan without the relevant license in the first place will be confused by not being able to use SNS, or may suffer the pain of not being able to post information on SNS despite having come all the way to Japan, so it would be preferable to establish similar easing measures, especially in the early stages of implementation. For example, measures such as having foreigners apply upon entry and having the relevant license management agency grant them a special authentication method for short-term visitors only for the period of their stay in Japan. Furthermore, it is preferable to take measures such as allowing users to post on bulletin boards, etc., for facilities and sites for emergency use regardless of whether or not the license is in place, so this should not pose a problem in an emergency. For example, facilities and sites for emergency use could be subject to the specifications of claim 1.

[0041] A transitional period is also necessary to allow for a gradual shift from traditional usage methods to an Internet structure that utilizes the license. For example, taking the case of bulletin boards and social networking sites as an easy-to-understand example, a transitional measure could be established with a future licensing policy, (A) requiring each bulletin board or social networking site user to implement a simple and easy structure that prevents users from creating accounts, logging in, or posting without ID-level personal information identification and authentication, (A') requiring each user to implement a structure that prevents users from creating accounts, logging in, or posting without passing a certain quiz based on the terms of use or other information available to them, (B) requiring each user to delete existing posts from users who have not provided or passed the necessary information for a certain period of time, for example, within one week to one month of the end of the period, followed by (C) fully licensing the rights to post, for example, by requiring only license authentication at the time of posting, while leaving some loopholes, once official test questions are available, and (D) ultimately shifting to a process of controlling permissions using essential addresses. Since this is an issue that needs to be resolved in the near future, it may be desirable to take such transitional measures in some cases, but it would be more preferable to shift to a system where address authority is controlled and licensed all at once at some point, while making adjustments to prevent unfairness and disorder caused by loopholes. The loopholes mentioned above are intended to prevent malicious telecommunications service providers from fulfilling their obligations, and malicious users from searching for malicious telecommunications service providers or creating their own bulletin boards or social networking sites.

[0042] The process of transitioning to licensing also includes processes and programs that will enable licensees and license management organizations to delete sites that have not been updated for a long time and are therefore at risk of being burgled because they no longer have an administrator, sites created by information providers who are not licensees, and sites that do not meet the licensing standards, during the transition period when the Internet usage structure is fully licensed.

[0043] The current specification, which allows anyone to post anything to the public on the Internet, goes back to the fact that IANA (now part of ICANN) distributes addresses with specifications that allow not only browsing but also various tasks (see: https: / / www.icann.org / ja / about / agreements / iana / functions-basics-08apr14-ja.pdf). Therefore, in order to prevent loopholes, it is fundamentally necessary to involve IANA and ask IANA to provide addresses with different task permission restrictions, i.e. addresses that only allow browsing, or addresses that essentially only allow browsing and one-to-one tasks, and addresses that also allow the writing in question. There is a way to negotiate the preparation and distribution of two or three new types of addresses that allow for overloading, etc., and the present invention includes the addresses themselves with different task permission restrictions, created with the involvement of IANA in order to protect the various human rights in question, as well as the Internet usage structure consisting of addresses with different task permission restrictions, but since there are already national-level frameworks such as JPNIC and ISP, and there is already a range of IP addresses allocated to each country, and there are already national networks on the Internet, it is thought that it would be possible for countries to impose individual task restrictions by means of adding task restrictions with a program and then connecting to the Internet from an actual address, etc., and therefore the above is the content.

[0044] In addition, since the days of IPv4, there have been multicast addresses in addition to the standard specifications, and in IPv6, what is called a global unicast address is the base. Using these as an example, the present invention will be explained as follows: the global unicast address is the basic specification, and the writing etc. is restricted to multicast addresses only, and the multicast addresses are licensed.

[0045] Furthermore, because postings on bulletin boards and social networking sites involve automated programs that distribute user postings to the public, using the example from the previous paragraph, the structure requires the specified telecommunications service provider to permanently install a program that blocks information transmission from global unicast addresses. Given the problems that have arisen with selling products and placing advertisements, various operational methods are conceivable, such as using automated programs or having a selection process by the specified telecommunications service provider. Therefore, the structure requires the permanent installation of procedures and programs that block postings from global unicast addresses from being distributed to the public in these cases as well. Furthermore, if the license is in the form of a key, encryption, electronic certificate, ID / password, etc., the structure requires the specified telecommunications service provider to permanently install a program that authenticates the license when the user makes such writing, etc. It would also be effective to block information transmission from global unicast addresses to multicast addresses at the level of ISPs, JPNIC, or at the level of a newly established license management organization. Furthermore, at the level of ISPs, JPNICs, or newly established license management organizations, blocking information transmission from overseas global unicast addresses to domestic multicast addresses would also make it possible to block various human rights violations by people overseas who are unaware of the laws of that country. In this regard, in today's highly globalized world, it is not uncommon for people to have acquaintances overseas, and it is not uncommon for them to use social networking services as a means of communication. Therefore, it would be an issue to overcome to prevent the sudden blocking of these communication routes, but the above example is merely an example using existing addresses, and would fall within the scope of the fine-tuning of the present invention.

[0046] To put it in general terms again, it is a structure that includes a program that, for example, allows information transmission from an item of claim 1 to an item of claim 1, but blocks information transmission from an item of claim 2 to an item of claim 1, regarding the writing, etc.

[0047] Because the circumstances surrounding Internet usage vary from country to country, there would be merit in establishing a structure that allows for fine-tuning of address authority in each country with its various Internet usage circumstances, without having to ask IANA for fine-tuning. For example, for actual addresses such as global unicast addresses that form the base of IPv6, a program with task restrictions could be prepared for the route from the information source, and the structure could be such that connections to the Internet are made through that program. In particular, even if we focus only on private internet address contracts, the current range of possible uses for such contract holders is as follows: 1) browsing only; 2) browsing and private use only (such as bank accounts); 3) all of the above plus posting on bulletin boards and social media; 4) all of the above plus product sales and advertising; and 5) all of the above plus website creation. Considering the activities of large organizations, there are even more uses, such as broadcasting, bank account security management, surveillance, and military use. Therefore, making these addresses independent of programmable addresses may be beneficial for all citizens and industries in terms of marketing (e.g., changing contract prices), traffic control, and security. As noted above in 1 and 2, obtaining a license is a matter of choice, and since many people will not encounter problems simply by not choosing to engage in activities using such licenses, it does not represent any superiority or inferiority. However, licensing, for example, would tend to limit use of such posting to only those who require such activities, so a tiered or specialized approach to licenses would also be beneficial. Once the licensing is fully implemented and malicious telecommunications service providers and malicious users are gone, it may be possible to operate under the license for things other than addresses, for example by enacting a law that requires each telecommunications service provider or website creation software to authenticate the license when posting, etc., and the present invention also includes such a form, but since a loophole will be created in the coexistence of conventional website creation software and addresses distributed as standard by IANA, it is preferable to control address tasks on a national or IANA level. In some cases, from a long-term perspective, one approach would be to build an Internet usage structure in which the standard specifications on the computer side are essentially specifications for browsing and one-to-one tasks only, and specifications that cannot be switched to specifications for disseminating information to the public unless the computer goes through the relevant license authentication process. However, if control is left to individuals, there is a possibility that someone will tamper with their computer, and if such a thing were to occur, it would be difficult to crack down on, so it is preferable to control address tasks on a national or IANA level. [Effects of the Invention]

[0048] At the very least, people who do not have knowledge of the various human rights in question or who do not read the laws, regulations, etc. will no longer be able to transmit information to the public on the Internet. Also, people who cannot reveal their identities (e.g., members of criminal organizations) will no longer be able to transmit information to the public on the Internet. As a result, it will be possible to prevent a large number of people, particularly the general public, from becoming victims of various human rights violations, including crime. The environment for using the Internet will be improved, crime and violence will decrease, and the benefits of the Internet to the economy and industry will be fully utilized. The quality of information on the Internet will also improve. Not only victims, but also people and funds previously relied on for monitoring will be able to devote their time and money to more free, healthy, beneficial, and creative activities. It will be possible to prevent at least unfair income from entering the hands of major IT companies, allowing them to restore a fair share. Ultimately, this will contribute to the healthy development of industry. In the first place, as the quality of information input improves, the frequency of such violations will likely decrease. However, in terms of the relationship with search engines, search engine operators will no longer be able to operate in the target country unless they also become license holders. Therefore, if they receive a warning from the license management agency, they will be required to remove content. This will result in standards that more accurately reflect the laws, public order, morals, public opinion, and customs of the target country than the previous border system. Furthermore, the decision to remove content will be made more quickly. Furthermore, the license management agency will be able to remove content directly, without going through the search engine. This will result in a prompt restoration of appropriate public safety and contribute to the healthy development of the economy. [Industrial Applicability]

[0049] In addition to paragraphs

[0047] and

[0048] above, if the license were made a national qualification, the country would benefit. Furthermore, since it confers special privileges, such as disseminating information to the public, it would be fair to charge an application fee for the license, regardless of whether an exam is required. This would also bring in profits for the country. Naturally, there would also be cases where money would come in from overseas. From Japan's perspective, if Japan could obtain the rights for the license in each country, it would be possible to sell it overseas. From Japan's perspective, this would also contribute to the existing global image of Japan as a safe country. Ultimately, this would increase the country's financial resources through a cycle beneficial to the people. In this way, the economy and social welfare would flourish. Public safety would improve. Ultimately, people would be able to spend their time creatively, contributing to industrial development. If it spreads to other countries, it would be a positive thing for the world.

[0050] Furthermore, if an Internet usage structure based on such licenses is created, an organization to manage such licenses will be needed. Furthermore, industries will emerge that develop technologies for more effectively creating such licenses, technologies for more effectively creating addresses with rights restricted to browsing and one-to-one tasks, and peripheral technologies for more effectively building Internet usage structures using such technologies. This will lead to the development of technologies in those fields, as well as the development of technologies to continuously strengthen those technologies. This will also lead to the development of related technologies. Overall, this will contribute to the development of the industry.

[0051] In the first place, because people generally tend to avoid lawsuits, especially those involving suspicious strangers, the traditional Internet usage structure allows problems to potentially accumulate. Furthermore, because people generally tend to avoid lawsuits, especially those involving suspicious strangers, increasing court manpower is not a fundamental solution, and increasing manpower is also unrealistic. Therefore, rather than increasing lawsuits and increasing government revenue, the claimed invention is more beneficial and healthy, creating a virtuous cycle for the economy. Even in the event of litigation, the creation of a standard in the form of a license clarifies the criteria for judgment, speeds up problem resolution, and enriches people's lives. People will have more free, useful, and creative time than they do now. Overall, this will contribute to industrial development.

[0052] In addition, it will be possible to understand what percentage of the population reflects online opinions, thereby improving the accuracy of public opinion statistics. It will also be possible to preserve other means of communication that are sometimes more useful than the Internet, but which tend to be overlooked in this age of Internet obsession. This will also contribute to the fair, healthy, and diverse development of industry.

[0053] If the structure of the present invention is established, the appearance of fake sites (fake homepages as referred to in the relevant postings, etc. of the present application) will be rare in the first place. However, to prepare for those who try to evade, it would be easier to develop technology to detect fake sites if sets of IP addresses and domain names, which are known at least by IANA and are likely known by ISPs and JPNIC in Japan, could be provided for technology development. This is because sites that cannot be detected among sets of legitimate sites (a domain name and the IP address that first used that domain name), can be easily identified as fake sites. The establishment of such a license management organization would make it easier to lead such complementary development. It would also make it easier to operate such complementary detection systems. More preferably, the technology for detecting fake sites is a technology with the same gist as the main invention of the present application, which is to detect fake sites and prevent them from appearing on the Internet in the first place.

[Figure 12]An example of application of the present invention to bulletin boards and SNSs using multicast addresses (an example of posting, etc., rather than viewing or private communication). Examples of license switching equipment in the figure include a program that does not connect the address of a Type 1 applicant to a multicast address for sender task communication (e.g., posting for public transmission) that is permitted for Type 2 or 3 applicants but not for Type 1 applicants. A program that does not connect the address of a Type 1 or 2 applicant to a multicast address for sender task communication (e.g., advertising, etc.) that is permitted for Type 3 applicants but not for Type 1 or 2 applicants. Other examples include a program that specifies that the sender route of the base device of claim 2 is not connected to a multicast address, and then imposes a type of authentication via verification by the license management organization specific to Type 2 or Type 3 applicants when making posts, etc. [Figure 13]An example of application of the present invention to bulletin boards and SNSs using only global unicast addresses (an example of posting, etc., rather than viewing or private communication). The figure shows an example of a bulletin board or SNS with a type 3 applicant. First, an explanation is given of a case where three addresses are allocated to the bulletin board or SNS (type 3 applicant) (1: address for private communication, 2: address for tasks that type 2 to 3 applicants can do (e.g., posting to the public), 3: address for tasks that only type 3 applicants can do (e.g., advertising)). In this case, the license switching equipment in the figure is a program that does not connect the addresses of type 1 applicants to 2 and 3, and the addresses of type 2 applicants to 3, etc. Next, an explanation is given of a case where only one address is allocated to the bulletin board or SNS (type 3 applicant). In this case, the license switching equipment in the drawing may be a program that does not connect the address of a Type 1 applicant to the URL of a bulletin board or SNS (Type 3 applicant) for posting, etc. (e.g., posting to the public) that Type 2 or 3 applicants are permitted to make, or the address of a Type 2 applicant to the URL of a bulletin board or SNS (Type 3 applicant) for posting, etc. (e.g., advertising, etc.) that Type 3 applicants are permitted to make. Other programs include a program that does not connect the sender's route of the basic claim 2 to the address and / or URL for posting, etc. on a bulletin board or SNS (Type 3 applicant) for posting, etc., and then imposes a type of authentication via verification by the license management organization specific to Type 2 or Type 3 applicants when posting, etc. [Figure 14] The license switching equipment in the example diagram of emergency equipment is a program that connects any type of applicant's address to a special address for emergency equipment for communications on the writing side, etc. [Figure 15] The license switching equipment in the example diagram of complementary fake site detection technology is a program that detects communications from the posting side that are not part of a set of legitimate sites (a certain domain name and the set of IP address that first used that domain name) and prevents that communication from going any further out (meaning a program that prevents communications from going any further in from the posting side that are heading domestically from overseas).

[0055] [Legend] □: Only has the authority to view and one-to-one tasks, ■: Has the authority to write to the public in addition to the above DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0056] [Embodiment 1] If the entry point for such postings and other content to the public on the Internet were restricted to the licensee, Google (registered trademark), a leading search engine, would be able to redirect its employees and expenses, which currently delete 5.5 billion advertisements per year, as shown in Comparative Example 1 below, to more creative work. Overtime work would also be reduced. Engineers would be able to focus on creative work and spend their private time in a free, useful, and creative way, which would contribute to the development of industry.

[0057] [Embodiment 2] If the entry point for such postings on the Internet is limited to the license holder, fewer people will become victims of such human rights violations, and people will be freed from having to deal with such damage, allowing them to have more free, useful, and creative time. Furthermore, they will be able to allocate funds to more free, useful, and creative pursuits. Ultimately, this will contribute to a virtuous cycle in the economy and industrial development. For the reasons stated in paragraph

[0015] of the above [Problem to be Solved by the Invention], it is likely that few people will take legal action in the first place, and courts have limited manpower. Therefore, there is no disadvantage to the courts, and therefore no disadvantage to the country. Furthermore, because courts have limited manpower, lawyers and other legal professionals also suffer no disadvantage. Furthermore, the above also applies from the perspective that, in order to maintain public order as it was before the spread of the Internet and to expect healthy economic development, court manpower should not be increased in a fixed manner. Furthermore, even if the so-called deletion business described in paragraph

[0015] of the above [Problem to be Solved by the Invention] were to decrease, it would not have a negative impact on industrial development, since it is against public order and morals. Furthermore, there will be people who use various technologies to circumvent regulations, and there are areas of the Internet that are completely private spaces (e.g., email, online shopping, bank accounts, corporate intranets, etc.), so it is highly likely that businesses such as virus protection will continue, and the decrease in malicious Internet task users can be shifted to technological development in new areas that accompany the construction of a new Internet structure based on the license, so there will be no adverse impact on industrial development in existing areas.

[0058] [Comparative Example 1] Google (registered trademark), a leading search engine, expends efforts to delete 5.5 billion advertisements each year (Non-Patent Document 2). The traditional structure of Internet usage is causing significant economic losses. This in turn is depriving not only victims but also engineers of the time, money, and energy they could have spent on creative work such as starting new industries. It is also depriving them of the time, money, and energy they could have spent on creative work. This is damaging industrial development.

[0059] Comparative Example 2 Individuals and corporations who have become victims of such human rights violations on the Internet cannot immediately get the content removed by specified telecommunications service providers or search engines, even if they ask them to. Some specified telecommunications service providers intentionally do not remove the content, instead turning it into a deletion business in an attempt to earn fees. (Reference: Non-Patent Document 3) In addition, search engine operators will certainly block a site from appearing in searches if the reasons for its absence are clearly stated, but due to the fact that they operate 24 hours a day, the names of the people in charge are not disclosed, and it seems that the response may be by AI or by a person whose native language is different from that of the victim, which takes time. Also, even if, as a result of negotiations, the search engine operator takes measures to prevent a site from appearing in search engines, the site in question still exists on the Internet, so the problem remains that malicious Internet users can view it if they wish, and so removal does not constitute a fundamental solution.

[0060] Comparative Example 3 If individuals or corporations that have suffered human rights violations on the Internet file a lawsuit, not only does it put ordinary citizens (individuals or corporations) without the power of weapons or police at risk of being connected to suspicious strangers, but it will take at least two to three months and cost up to 500,000 yen in legal fees. Appealing the lawsuit will require even more time, money, and effort. The traditional structure of Internet usage is causing significant economic losses. Ultimately, it is taking away the time, money, and energy that people could use creatively both in their personal and professional lives. Ultimately, it is damaging the healthy development of industry. (Reference: Non-Patent Document 3)

[0061] Comparative Example 4 Individuals and corporations who have suffered various human rights violations on the Internet are forced to pay 50,000 to 200,000 yen per URL if they use the so-called deletion business described in paragraph

[0015] of the above-mentioned [Problem to be Solved by the Invention]. Since Internet damage typically extends beyond a single URL, it requires much more time, money, and effort. The traditional structure of Internet usage generates significant economic losses. Ultimately, it deprives people of the time, money, and energy they could otherwise spend creatively, both in their personal and professional lives. From the perspective of the deletion business, simply increasing the number of posts is a simple task, and the more posts they post, the more profit they make. Because it's easy to make money, they increase the number, disrupting public order and morals. Ultimately, this harms the healthy development of the industry. (Reference: Non-Patent Document 3)
