And here, I had thought that most of *.ROOT-SERVERS.NET. were ISC-sponsored, mostly not-for-profit/academic/subsidized servers as it was. To be sure, VeriSign does not control the majority of such servers. 8-)
You're probably confused that ROOT-SERVERS.NET. != GTLD-SERVERS.NET. The latter hosts COM. and NET. and is run exclusively by VeriSign.
