Default Re: EU deal threatens end to US dominance of internet

I'm normally very open minded about foreign policy issues but in this case I'll happily say I could care less what the EU, or any other country, wants in this regard. With all due respect I have no desire to see the UN/multi-country control over the net. I have little doubt the growth of the net would be stifled. ICANN ain't perfect but I have little doubt that some bureaucratic and political UN board would make things 1000 times worse.

There is room to talk about ICANN and some of how it operates but I don't know of many, if any, here in the states that would like to see the UN running the net. Even supporters of the UN overall and it's possibilities in helping the world have no desire to see them in charge of the net.
