ICANN vs. ccTLDs in Geneva

Gallowglass writes "The Register is reporting on an interesting meeting in Geneva. To quote from the article, 'Why the huge fuss? Because the meeting threatened to turn into a caucus where rising resentment against ICANN and its attempt to stamp ultimate authority over the Internet could have escalated into international agreement and action.' Didn't quite, but the natives are restless. The article has links to all presentations given at the two day meeting, and also an audio of the event at the bottom of the article. It's also a good summary of the controversy and of its history."

    Gentlemen,
    Recently it has come to our attention that France is in possession of a nuclear device. We must not let this weapon of mass destruction fall into terrorist hands. Therefore, I propose that the united states invade France.


    Given their military history, it is likely they would surrender immediately.
