Easy To Explain — WHY ICANN is dangerous
This is the quick way to explain why ICANN is so dangerous.
They essentially ‘govern’ the TLDs [top level domains].
Each TLD [such as .com or .org] runs its own ‘phone directory’.
And ICANN controls them through ‘Registry Operator Code of Conduct’.
Right now ICANN is subject to US law, mainly because its headquarters are in the US. But if ICANN’s contract isn’t renewed, it’s free to move overseas [which it secretly plans to] and modify its ‘Registry Operator Code of Conduct’ for each dot-com or dot-org or ...
... theoretically even our military websites.
From October on through to a republican president, there’s no telling how much the White House will coordinate with ICANN in the name of ‘no controlling legal authority’. “I had no choice.” [wink-wink]
[In other words — Hillary will have her gatekeeper if she wins, and Obama might too for a few months.]
Compare Trump [patriot] to McConnell [sellout]

McConnell Stabs Free Speech in the Back

“... on Thursday Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., laid out a “clean CR,” a blueprint for a continuing resolution to fund the government from Oct. 1 through Dec. 9. It does not include a provision to delay the transfer.”
Obama’s actions giving away ICANN without Congressional approval are illegal. President Trump’s first action should be to end this transfer immediately.
