According to Professor Jeremy Rabkin: ICANN is the internet’s version of a ‘phone number’ directory.
I’m using Professor Rabkin as a hostile witness BTW. But imagine if China or Soros got hold of our phone directory! With the right software they could scramble our phone numbers overnight, spam people with automatic calls, harass people and businesses, and sabotage phone lines.
And with the internet they could get even more creative. Sure, the FCC would scream bloody murder, but those squeals would be music to their ears.
ICANN is NOT a corporation. They aren’t interested in profits. But backroom deals with key players? That’s the perverse way ICANN would be influenced.
