[governance] My blog on Internet's Governance

[Milton L Mueller]

Fouad:
Of course Bill was joking. 
IGP promises never to claim ownership of the term "internet governance" [or even "internets governance"] and looking at your site it is clear that there is no attempt to confuse people into thinking that your blog and ours are the same. This is a good example of how looking only at domain name string similarity does not provide an adequate assessment of confusing similarity in a legal/trademark sense. ICANN take note.
