Re: US to relinquish control of Internet

What's the worst they can do at this point? Make .bobtodd and .bubbagump TLDs? This is different from some of the crap we've got now in what way??

Well, ICANN has come pretty close to delegating .HOME and .CORP to domain speculators, despite the vast amount of informal use which would get badly screwed up. Like I said, I look forward to the ITU equitably delegating domain names and IP addresses. Sorry the US has enough names already, the next ten million go to underserved areas. And since we know that phone numbers work great with per-country prefixes, we're going to improve the DNS so domain names always start with the country code. R's, John
