You are absolute right Nick. Let´s see first what happen. For me this
document open doors that I would like not to see open, but Toure could not
finish the conference without a signed paper for his own good at least.
With relevant countries not signing, the document lose power but still can
be of bad use for several countries. 

 Let´s see the final act.

It is a bit premature to draw final conclusions, especially involving such
hyperbole as the quoted article contains. We will see which countries sign
the Final Act in Dubai tomorrow and which do not, and what statements
countries make during the ceremony.

Only in a twisted society lack of dialogue and understanding will be seen as
victory and only irresponsible people celebrate failure.  

The bright side was that bad proposals about Internet were avoided, at least
for now. The bad side is that good proposals from the ITRs seem to be lost,
and the meeting proves that the rift is widening between actors. The
consequence may be more attempts for national regulation in a myriad of
topics, from national firewalls to SOPA, PIPA or domain name seizures from
the US gov. But wait: aren't the US the ultimate freedom fighters according
to .nxt?
