Paul,

are you meaning that News Corps are not (equal) stakeholders in the 
Information Society? Why would they not be on an equal footing with 
states and other stakeholders? What is worrying is an MS process 
where there are undefined "indirect" stakeholders and where 
independent users are not on an equal footing with everyone else.

He does not plead for News Corp to have a larger say than ICANN, RIR, 
manufacturer, edge provider, ISP, etc. and  other kind of 
corporations. But that the role permitted to the News Corps, and 
Corps in general, should be larger than what it is currently 
permitted in order to be in accordance to their effective weight in 
the human/computer/corporation society of today.

I hope you do not say the same about independent users (IUsers)?

Take care.
