The obvious way it gets massaged is to fiddle with the exact wording.  

We're not dealing with particularly imaginative (or intelligent) people here.  So, if they are looking for targets by searching for specific words, which they are, just use different words or phrases which mean the same thing.

A key pillar in the outreach to the emerging and underserved regions is the concept of participation based on inclusion and diversity (my understanding anyway). Be interesting to see how this get massaged.

Allow me to translate:

“While we may have changed some words on our website in order to appease tyrants, ICANN participants should know that as always we will continue to act exactly as we please regardless of what we say publicly, and thus nothing of substance will change.”

It's a pity.

ICANN establishes the trust in its function of govern the global rules for
the Internet by representing the whole community of all stakeholders.
By dropping the representation, ICANN could lose its standing, and
eventually lose the trust in the rules generated.
This is the way into meaninglessness.
