[governance] [new letter] Senator Warren and others send new letter re: sale of PIR

[Ayden Férdeline]

Senator Warren and five other lawmakers have written to ICANN yesterday regarding the proposed sale of the Public Interest Registry:

"The Ethos Capital takeover of the .ORG domain fails the public interest test in numerous ways: it threatens the quality and reliability of .ORG websites, and could severely limit access to these domains via price increases and 'arbitrary censorship,'" wrote the lawmakers. "And the current commitments and agreements made by Ethos Capital fail to mitigate these risks."
