Talking from the USERs side: I agree with Ross - any Government intervention in the "functioning" of the Internet is not good news now, and in the future. The Internet phenomenon is a development that should not be politicized and not Governed by any particular sovereign state as it has been since ICANN (and its Constituencies) was mandated to do. There is room for each Governments to advise;that is through GAC and that process has been going on well.(?) At least there is this resource that is "neutral" and should be kept so. ym
