Competition is not a bad thing. Competition would be if I could approach the NCC or Pepsi Cola for my integers for use on the internet. It is not competition if the government makes me ask them for some integers. Assuming that ITU would become a nationwide alternative RIR, you still have the choice to approach NCC, wouldn't you?
Why would this automatically be the case ? If governments were required to distribute addresses via the national regulator, then the freedom of choice would NOT be the case.
Not sure if Pepsi would be the right comparison for the ITU ;-)
My point entirely. :-) Andy
