The concept of "accountability" involves the question of "to whom is that duty of accountability owed?".
AFAIK and you have much more expertise than me on the subject, on paper ICANN is only accountable to the General Attorney of the State of California, and for whatever remains of the IANA contract to NTIA as a contractor. The rest is all smoke and mirrors. Regards Jorge
