I don't believe I ever said it did. If you think that I get some sort of pleasure out of them being down, I don't.
As far as I can tell, DNS for icann.org is functioning as designed. It has several name servers dispersed across geographical areas and network topology which continue to give authoritative answers for the icann.org zone without interruption. Isn't that how its supposed to work? ICANN has nothing to do with routing, the world wide web, or lots of other things on the Internet.
