Internet Society

The Internet Society at IGF 2025 in Norway (The Who, What, When, Where, and Why)

How the Internet is managed—its governance model—has a direct impact on how it is used, evolves, and on users’ daily life. We believe that the best way to do it is through an inclusive collaboration model (the multistakeholder model), and the Internet Governance Forum is one of the main global platforms where that governance is practiced. As IGF comes to its 20th edition, the last of its mandate, a sense of urgency arises as we approach a critical time towards the World Summit on the Information Society 20-year review (WSIS+20) that will take place later this year.

Shotcut 25.05 Video Editor Adds Powerful Editing Tools

Shotcut, one of the most popular free, open-source video editors, has just released its latest version, 25.05.

This update now includes an Alpha Strobe video filter, which allows editors to blitz through transparency masks visually strikingly. Moreover, the Freeze Frame tool is directly integrated into the Timeline, so capturing that perfect still is now just a click away. Plus, the Rerun Filter Analysis command has been added to the File menu for power users.

Beyond filters, the Timeline has gained adjustable track header widths, offering greater flexibility when juggling multiple audio and video layers. Meanwhile, the Playlist panel now displays an item count, so users always know how many clips are queued up.
