    Icann/Verisign is bad for me. But, the U.N. would be worse.

    knowing the UN, the first act that they put in place will be to redirect all .co.il traffic to 404 pages.

    On past record the UN wouldn't be able to agree on what to do and then when there was a breach wouldn't have the desire to enforce it.

    Mr. Webname, you are totally correct.

    Furthermore, the only reason they want ".net" is for the money.
    It is just a higher level of domain hijacking.

    Re: U.N. finds Net governance tempting

    The UN completely botched the Food for Oil program in Iraq, with $ millions siphoned off into corruption. The fewer tasks for the UN, the better. ICANN is doing a lot of things the right way, and they are having to create their program as they go along. This is not easy.

    Right now, each country has its own TLD to govern. That in itself is reason enough to keep the UN out. Maybe the UN should have its own TLD, .UN. Then they could hand out .com.un, .org.un, etc

    The US government paid for the development of the Internet, including the concept of domain names and TLD's. The UN had nothing to do with it.

    Sadly, this is only a slight exageration. It might not be their first act,
    but I would not be surprised if something like that happened.
