[governance] ICANN/FIFA

[Ian Peter]

The main parallel I can see is that both football and the internet will continue largely unaffected by the political goings-on in either FIFA or ICANN.

As I watch along with I’m sure many others, the events consuming FIFA I am of course, reminded of the often made parallels between FIFA and ICANN, particularly in reference to proposed models for governance of global non-governmental organizations as for example in the area of accountability.

 

So, I’m wondering from among with those with far more knowledge concerning ICANN than myself, what lessons if any might one draw from what is being exposed concerning FIFA and how might that figure into what if anything will be an outcome of the current IANA transition discussions?
