[governance] ICANN stumbling on a hornet nest

[Milton L Mueller]

If they don't, I will proudly tell them that I was an expert witness in the first-ever ICANN Independent Review Process. Along with half a dozen other witnesses, I helped to prove to an independent international tribunal that ICANN had been unduly influenced by the U.S. Commerce Department to reject the .xxx domain and that its rejection of the domain was arbitrary, unfair, discriminatory and did not follow its own stated criteria for approving domains.

Relevant documents can be found here: http://www.icann.org/en/news/irp/icm-v-icann

I was too modest to point this out myself, but I know I can always count on Alejandro to toot my horn. ;-)

From: Dr. Alejandro Pisanty Baruch [mailto:apisan at unam.mx]

but does everybody know of your role in bringing .xxx back to business?
