Like I said check the links that I posted. If you think nothing will come if this then so be it. I was posting this thread only to inform people of current events. Not to hold your hand

ICANN is a none profit organization if we want to believe that, they had their roots in the US as a corporation, but operated independently, if you want to believe that, now why they call themselves part of globalization and members no only wants US completely off the company and the UN to take over.

That is the part I will like to know more about it, see when I read UN or hear UN it kinds of ring funny to me.

It's not exactly correct that the UN will be taking over, any more than the US ran ICANN until now. It didn't.

I really don't see the big deal here. ICANN has already been doing this since the 90's. The IANA was managed by ICANN already. Literally nothing will change as far as day to day operations go. You won't notice anything different. The only difference is that the US government arm (the IANA) won't be involved and are just letting ICANN absorb the functions of the IANA which they've already been doing.

Security will be the same when it happens as it is now. Or even better since the US won't have their sticky little fingers in the mix.

Everyone crying about this now are the same people crying about Net Neutrality too. Saying that it was the end of the internet as we know it and all that BS. We can all see how wrong they were about that one. I think this will be the same outcome. Much ado about nothing.

It's funny that they're also the same people who hate Government involvement in anything. Except for when they like Government Involvement. My guess is it's because Obama is doing it, so it must be horrible.

I wasn't asking for my hand to be held.

I was pointing out that the claims are nonsense.

President Obama Authorizing something he needs Congressional Approval to do . An Executive Order is Unconstitutional here in this regard .

Please cite the Executive Order to which you are referring. What is its number?

Why is Congressional approval required?

The US can ban sites quite easily. And this won't change that.

That's a lie. Are you or are you not a US citizen?

I think ICANN was scared of the following two possibilitis under our current POTUS candidates hence the turn over


1. Hillary wins and she places the dns routing and config info in her basement email server.

PRO: open to the world
Con: as soon as the people find out about it , it magically gets wiped and accidently hit with hammers and all important information is lost.

2. Trump wins and he places a firewall around the dns routing and config info.

Pro: He sends the bill to the UN.
Con: no websites in the US work because the firewall is keeping all the foreign packets from coming in and the American packets don't have the bandwidth to do the low level routing work by themselve.

None of which has anything to do with ICANN.

just wait and see how Foreign Oversight of the Internet will make it Uninhabitable for just about Every User out there .

How will the UN overseeing the administration of domain names do that?

How will the UN overseeing the administration of domain names benefit the USA?
