Contribution :	Previous years have been a period of technological growth and revolutionary technologies have been introduced: Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, blockchain, biometrics, big data, new generation of mobile communication (5G), robotics, drones and etc. At the same time, these technologies should not be considered only as a “technical invention”, since its use affects the social and economic development of human society and states. Accepting the importance, tremendous opportunities and potential risks of such new technologies different countries have been actively developing national regulations in information space and Internet services. Under the open consultations held by CWG-Internet on “International public policy issues pertaining to the application of new and emerging technologies in telecommunication/ICT for sustainable development” examples of the national policies and initiatives on Internet regulation, new ICT technologies in particular, has been prepared. However, the Internet is a global virtual environment and internet services are difficult to tie to geographical boundaries. That is why all stakeholders should seriously think about how fragmented national initiatives should be integrated with international regulation that remains to be created. Further continuation of the creation of new national standards carries significant risks that ultimately the regulation of new and emerging technologies will become ineffective, therefore, the need to harmonize such national norms at the global level should be emphasized. The world community needs immediate, coordinated and effective actions aimed at improving the current model of governance for new technology and Internet and development international legal basis for that.
