Who To Oversee Internet?

Posted by michael on from the i-cut-you-choose dept.

A reader sent in a link to a CNN story covering the ongoing ICANN meeting in Ghana. Not terribly informative or detailed; I'm sure we'll see better reports on this important meeting.

  1. Much more info available at ICANNWatch.org by Froomkin · · Score: 4, Informative
    ICANNWatch.org has Early Notes from (and About) Accra and will have more information and especially commentary as it becomes available.

    Also keep an eye on the ICANN Blog.

    ...why did you post it?

  3. Open Root Server Confederation by asackett · · Score: 1
    The Open Root Server Confederation is ready to accept those who'll likely be fleeing from ICANN's death grip in the not too distant future.

    While ICANN haggles over how best to rape the internet users of the world by doling out TLDs in artificially limited numbers, stifling competition, the ORSC provides resolution of over a thousand top level domains. ORSC conducts its affairs openly, and listens to input even from non-members such as myself.

    Why anyone would choose to even acknowledge ICANN is beyond me.
