Best quote:<br>
<br>
"The removal of the permanent seats will prevent the initiative from collapsing, but after a number of false starts and missteps, and with the credibility of ICANN's CEO Fadi Chehade – the main driver of the program – having taken a blow, it is far from certain
that the NetMundial Initiative will produce anything of real value."<br>
