The NETmundial statement did not mentioned the Snowden Revelations directly, although it did condemn surveillance on the Internet. The outcome document also made no mention of censorship of information on the Internet that is currently being carried out by multiple countries worldwide.<ref name="circleid" />

In December 2014, the [[Internet Architecture Board]] issued a statement to the effect that it would not participate in the NETmundial initiative. IAB emphasized their support for the initial NETmundial meeting, but expressed concern about the creation of the "highly structured co-ordination council" on the grounds that this could "impede the development of broad participation, and so may be premature", particularly because the coordination council members are the responsible parties for the effort.<ref>[http://www.circleid.com/posts/20141204_iab_issues_statement_on_netmundial_initiative_will_not_participate/ IAB issues statement on netmundial initiative and will not participate] Circleid, published and retrieved 4th December 2014.</ref>
