Moez Chakchouk (Arabic: معز شقشوق), born in Sousse on 12 July 1975, is the Director of Government Affairs and Regulatory Policy at Packet Clearing House, the international organization responsible for providing operational support and security to critical internet infrastructure, including Internet exchange points and the core of the domain name system.
[11] He overhauled the organization, substantially redefining its role in the Tunisian economy, privatizing, introducing competition, and opening the sector to new market entrants.
In 2011, by principles, he strongly opposed the return of censorship [31] and surveillance of the Internet in Tunisia,[32] and has moreover won the case brought against the ATI.
[33] In June 2013, while chairing the organizing committee of the Freedom Online Conference,[34] he launched the 404Labs,[35] an innovation lab open for the civil society and located at the basement which was the censorship symbol.
Chakchouk, as member of the non-profit NGO (CLibre) for the promotion of free digital culture, has helped the implementation of the first MESH Network in Tunisia, in the city of Sayada.
