That's gonna be a mess

The UN shouldn't be handing anything that technical, just like congress shouldn't be passing spam laws...

I agree, this will not be good.

I think here in the US, we won't be too affected, its not like we listen to the UN anyway.

The United Nations should be handling nothing, and it usually does.

but what people are missing here is that the internet is a collection of privately owned networks all interconnected... wtf is the UN going to do? go to all the ISPs and be like "you are under our control now! hand over all your assets"

i cant wait till all the bells/quest/level3/cognet/everyone etc just roll on the floor laughing...

the UN is truly just plain retarded if they believe they can do this

i dont think ICANN should worry...

im sure that the people @ the UN thinks that the internet is "owned" by the US... its one giant closet under the whitehouse with like a 40000Tb san and thats were ICANN and everone hides O_o

and on that note, since we invented the internet (no al-gore jokes ) we dont have to listen to what is in their best interests, we can do whatever we damn well please w/it, if they want a network for their interests, build it your self, we made the internet here, for here... the fact that we let them participate should be a privilage for them...
