[governance] [govenance] The domain name racket goes on

[Barry Shein]

The implication is that ICANN would be less exposed to legal costs, in
particular judgements, arising from the new TLD program if they were
incorporated outside of the United States.

I'm not sure there's sound legal basis for this claim though I suppose
a jurisdictional structure could be concocted which claims to achieve
that goal. It's difficult to argue with a vague hypothetical.

Of course this all assumes that the plaintiffs should have no right to
redress and are always wrong, so should just be thwarted by
jurisdictional means.
