New Kid on K Street: The Internet Association

A new trade group called “The Internet Association” has been formed to represent the interests of large Internet companies. It will begin operating in September, with Michael Beckerman, a former adviser to the chairman of the U.S. House of Representatives’ Energy and Commerce Committee, serving as its president. The association will likely deal with the full gamut of political and regulatory issues that have faced Internet companies over the last several years, including copyright protection, privacy, cybersecurity and sales tax collection.
