A déja vu masquerade.There is no point wasting time on this so called "transition" that in substance is plain status quo.<br />> <br />> What matters is working on the post masquerianade. Let the USG mickey-mousing with ICANN for their own use. The internet is working just the same without it. After all it's their sovereign right, ICANN is a californian company. Let's build a coalition with interested UN institutions and NGO's. There is plenty of experience and expertise for designing a framework based on democratic citizens empowerment, instead of GAFAs.<br />> <br />> Louis.<br />> - - -<br />>

<br />> Yes, it is a forgone conclusion. Although it will be arrived at through a convoluted path to give the pretence that it is the global public that wants it this way. A 'global public' conveniently re-christened as 'global multistakeholder community' to give some credence to the mentioned captive 'convoluted path' to arrive at this forgone conclusion. 'Public' you know is a dangerous word. You cant be sure who all can turn up in the name of 'public' and begin making what kinds of demands! 'Multistakeholder community' is a much more controllable political space/ concept. <br />> <br />> Sorry for the cynical sounding statement, but each element of the IANA transition (non) puzzle points to this elementary fact. If asked, I can elaborate. I am not doing so right away because I think it is just too obvious..<br />> <br />> parminder <font face="Verdana"></font></div>
