After all it's their sovereign right, ICANN is a californian company. Let's build a coalition with interested UN institutions and NGO's. There is plenty of experience and expertise for designing a framework based on democratic citizens empowerment, instead of GAFAs.

Is that really a foregone conclusion?



> Yes, it is a forgone conclusion. Although it will be arrived at through a convoluted path to give the pretence that it is the global public that wants it this way. A 'global public' conveniently re-christened as 'global multistakeholder community' to give some credence to the mentioned captive 'convoluted path' to arrive at this forgone conclusion. 'Public' you know is a dangerous word. You cant be sure who all can turn up in the name of 'public' and begin making what kinds of demands! 'Multistakeholder community' is a much more controllable political space/ concept.
