ICANN’ed
September 30, 2005And so it seems that we may see an end to the US control over the internet. I find this a hugely positive development, and I hope that the control over the internet will become a super-national matter. There is no logical reasoning anywhere that explains why the control over the internet should be in the hands of any country– especially not the United States. If there is one country’s government on this planet thar nor I, nor many others, trust, it’s the US one. Democratic or Republican.
These proposals are still in their infancy, so we’ll have to wait and see how they turn out. OSNews’ comment section is gonna be royally fcuked :). The jokes are easy though… ICANN’ed, ICANN’t.. Just too easy ;).
ICANN’t believe you’d think the US government would give up control of the root servers of the Internet. Won’t happen, saddly.
