[governance] Uni.X to Uni.X .NETworking - Re-Mapping the 2, 048 Address Regimes

2,048 address space regimes can fit in the DDDD.DDDDDDD Prefix below,
by now, there were supposed to be 2,048 best-of-breed TLDs. That would be
a fair method to distribute the address space in a semi-geo semi-adhoc
manner.

0101.DDDD.000.DDDDDDD.11.<<<<32 bits>>>>.0.000000.0.1.DDD

As people have discovered in their UN discussions, fairness has never been
something
that flows from THE Big Lie Society. In that island nation, after the cruise
ship disaster,
you would find THE Big Lie Society living large in their people-funded huts,
consuming
80% of the island's resources in their small closed community. When they
divide a pie
it is half for them, one fourth for their supporters, one fourth to pay off
their government
(yet they declare themselves to be the government, that piece is also
consumed by them)
and you get the crumbs.

Since the 2,048 TLDs and address space regimes will likely never appear on
the horizon,
it may be better to map the 20-bit Prefix below, via software and at the
same time test
the removal of all of the fixed bits. Software that uses 320-bit messages is
now available
and you can fit two 64-bit address in there with all bits active as well as
up to 16 bytes of
data. Your 160-bit messages can be used to prefix a 320-bit message for 128
bit addressing.

With a 20-bit prefix and a 4-letter symbol set, 5-letter names can be mapped
to the Prefix.

0101.DDDD.000D.DDDD.DD11.<<<<32 bits>>>>.0.000000.0.1.DDD

Given the 4-letter symbol set: .CDEIMNOPRTUV389
0000  .  0001 C  0010 D  0011 E  0100  I  0101 M  0110 N  0111 O
1000 P  1001 R  1010  T   1011 U  1100 V  1101 3  1110 8  1111 9

Some of the common names are:

.COM.
0000.0001.0111.0101.0000
.NET
0000.0110.0011.1010.0000

Note: the dots on the left and right resulting in the 0000s.

If the fixed bits are still considered, you have:

0101.DDDD.000D.DDDD.DD11

M*[CR]*[EOU9]

Translation: M followed by any symbol (*) followed by pick-one C or R
followed by any symbol (*) followed by pick-one, E O U or 9.

With 20 bits, there are 1,048,576 possible prefixes. Those could still be
viewed as TLDs. Back
when root-servers were still used, people lied about the number of TLDs they
could support.
It was pointed out that the same physical servers were serving about one
million .COM names
and if .COM was the virtual root, the servers could obviously handle that
load. The lies of course
changed to security and stability and **legal capacity to regulate** one
million TLDs was not
available, it had nothing to do with the physical servers. TLDs were
contracted at the rate the
legal team could absorb money, and as in eating, there is a point you can
not eat any faster or
stuff food in a human's mouth any faster. THE Big Lie Society's capacity to
absorb cash was
exceeded much sooner than the capacity of the supporting technology.

As you can see above, with algorithms and software, there is no need for a
legal regime to fund.
You map your name, determine your Prefix, select your 32-bit name, and still
have addressing
left with 12 bits on the right.
