Netnod Tech Meeting 2026 digest Program Adjacent pick 6 October 2026

Speakers: Patrik Fältström - Netnod

Play the recording: Surviving in the new geopolitical landscape

  • Why: Fältström is a long-time authority on Internet governance and DNS/security policy; for infrastructure operators, geopolitical shifts (sanctions, jurisdictional control of infrastructure, cable and IX targeting) increasingly shape technical risk. Useful strategic context around the PM's network-security work, though not hands-on technical.
  • What: A strategic talk on operating Internet infrastructure in a changed geopolitical environment. (from title only)
  • How: Unknown; expect a policy/risk framing rather than a technical mechanism talk.
  • Where applicable: Broadly relevant to any European infrastructure operator; not a technique talk.
