1. ICANN was mainly created to test market some Proof of Concept TLDs. The test was a failure. ICANN was also created to fund Jon Postel and Vinton Cerf's clubs and cliques. 2. ICANN has been captured by Verisign. ICANN does not serve the public interest. ICANN serves the growing ICANN staff. 3. Most people get their DNS from their WIFI Linux router connected to their DSL or cable modem. Centralized root servers are no longer needed. 4. A new DNS technology is almost ready which makes ICANN (and Verisign) obsolete. It uses DHT technology which most ICANN groupies would never understand. 5. The new DNS technology will run in the smart edge devices (see #3) controlled by consumers, not ICANN, the USG, the EU, or the ITU. 6. ICANN sees the competition (replacement) coming and now decides to flood the market with TLDs. 7. The new TLD chaos will drive American consumers to the new technology (See #5). Obama will take credit for the change. 8. ICANN and the NRO (ARIN) continue to send each other love letters supporting their collusion and cartels, which are normally illegal in the USA. 9. There will be no shortage of IPv4 address space once new technology and ICANN are out of the picture. The Internet views censorship as damage and routes around it. 10. What will Milton Mueller do without ICANN and ARIN for subject matter ?
