the more i think about this, the more i am inclined to consider a second trusted root not (easily) attackable by the usg, who owns the root now, or the acta vigilantes. as dissent becomes less tolerated, let alone supported, we may want to attempt to ensure it in our deployments.

Before we do this, I do have some other questions: Wasn't this exactly why people suggested ICANN should just move to Switzerland and become an independent international organization ? Would this still be possibility ? An other question, how much does ICANN really have to say about the content of the root ? Isn't their a long process to get something in/out of the root and isn't it the root operators that decide to actually deploy the zone ?
