Growing membership
InternetNZ has had a sharp increase in members in 2025. While InternetNZ welcomes people from all backgrounds and perspectives, it is apparent that many new members are joining based on misleading information about proposed changes to the Constitution. Importantly, the proposed changes won’t change how domain names are managed, or give InternetNZ any additional powers.
We remain committed to maintaining stable, non-political management of critical digital infrastructure — something that has helped make.nz domain names among the most trusted in the world.
Join the conversation on NetHub
NetHub is an online chat community where you can hear about some great Internet-related events, discuss Internet issues and discover the work some remarkable New Zealanders are doing to make the Internet better in Aotearoa. It's on a messaging platform called Slack which is made up of channels for different topics for conversations. It's super easy. Anyone can join up — and it's free. If you're a member you can join the members-only channels too.
If you want to join, email membership@internetnz.net.nz and we'll sort that out for you.
