I agree and believe no *single* govt. should have pre-eminence in Internet Governance - but this is not USA bashing. As a UK citizen I no more want the UK or the EU to have sole control than I do the US. Perhaps we need to look at an Internet UN.
At the end of the day the US Govt and ICANN have not done a *bad* job to date and perhaps this relationship *should* be allowed to continue until there has been more practical debate on how Global Governance can be organised.
