Thank you Richard. As usual, you are thoughtful and 99% spot-on.
Esther Dyson surely doesn't represent your typical netizen. She's part of the problem, including her stupid-ass logic during "new TLD" selection back in November 2000 ... an absolutely worthless woman.
Richard, you are wrong when you surmise: "This resource belongs to all the individuals of the world who share on it, trade on it, communicate on it, learn on it, help others with it, build communities with it... all the individuals of the world who devote so much creativity and time to its development." It's a nice thought, but it's not really true. The US government owns it, whether anyone likes it or not. It started as a United States Department Of Defense tool, and remains controlled by another branch of that same government. That's alot better than having some idiot from Iran or Ghana running it. You can't trust the UN to run it, unless you nail down everything in the room so the swarmy types from third-world toilets can't fill their pockets with whatever isn't nailed down.
Too bad about the ALAC, it was always a sham.
Richard, you better get used to the DNS as it is. It's full of pirates and posers, and only a few individuals who aren't in it for a buck.
If I had my druthers, Richard Henderson would be an architect of a new DNS structure. Thank you Richard, it appears you really care.
