Cable rules? Broadcast rules? Network rules? [or ICANN rules?]
"The only reason to regulate here (cynicism) would be to protect the business models of existing broadcasters [Registrars] and the telcos/cablecos [Registries] who want to become broadcasters and want to create barriers to entry to others. There is no scarcity or "public airwave" or "invasion into the home" or spectrum allocation rationale for regulation of online video."
--- There is no scarcity in the name-space. Just make .COM the new root and call it a day. Forty plus million TLDs can't be wrong. Oops, better start to worry about that [job] security and stability and the load on the .COM servers. Funny, that has not ever been a concern before.
Just imagine .COM is not there and it is just a dot, the root at the right.
