[governance] UN controls the country code part of the Internet root, not US

Hi,

Another case of crooked interference is the bulgarian cyrillic ccTLD, *бг*,
chosen by the bulgarian gov and persistently rejected by ICANN.

The whole story was published a few years ago by Daniel Kalchev on the igc
list. ICANN kept invoking tortuous and delusive arguments which were
totally irrelevant, because the Tunis Agenda reads:

*« 63. Countries should not be involved in decisions regarding another
country’s country-code Top-Level Domain (ccTLD). Their legitimate
interests, as expressed and defined by each country, in diverse ways,
regarding decisions affecting their ccTLDs, need to be respected, upheld
and addressed via a flexible and improved framework and mechanisms. »*

The Tunis Agenda is crystal clear, it's a violation to reject the bulgarian
ccTLD. Nevertheless ICANN being an illegitimate monopoly imposed by the US
gov, it can afford being a violator, incompetent and parasitic.
