I often note similarities between ICANN and the FDA. Not everyone is fooled, even by fake consumer consensus feeding up to what is in actuality a self-(un)regulated industry, and thankfully in the case of ICANN, no-one dies. Profit before principle seems to be the watchword of American business and USG oversight, no matter the true cost. -g

ICANN's power clique are all from the US, they just pick a few token foreigners of like mind for the BoD to make it appear international, and how many of those don't have substantial US ties? Trademark enforcement also largely comes from the US (show me another country with the equivalent of the ACPA), and again they are able to find birds of a feather from elsewhere to flock with. -g
