Holder, Jr U.S. Attorney General Office of the Attorney General U.S. Department of Justice 950 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20530-0001 Via eMail: AskDOJ at usdoj.gov <http://usdoj.gov/> Dear Attorney General _______________: The Internet is in serious trouble. The legacy DOD DARPA Internet was built using a Tin-Can and Kite-String Architecture (TCKS). Bob connects his treehouse to Carol?s cave. Carol connects to Alice?s hut. Ted comes along, on his mountain; he connects to all three. All four get their Unique Addresses from some mysterious, opaque, private citizen(s) who claim to have government authority. The IANA.of.OZ baffles people. Naive academics, military funders, computer hackers, idealistic opportunists and cut-throat business people combined to build the early Internet. Anyone with expensive IPv4 ARPA-centric TCP/IP routers could expand the Legacy Internet. Unsuspecting consumers had no idea who was processing their packets. Unseen Street Gangs and Router Wars shaped the CyberSpace. Some people worship this as their Multi-Stakeholder Model. Other people recognize the BGP BiGProblems of Self-Governance. Internet Governance of unique Artificially Scarce Network Resources (ASNR) emerged. A Cyber TAX system was constructed using Domain Names (DNS). Three high-school chums, Jon Postel, Vinton Cerf, and Steve Crocker have dominated the CyberSpace DNS Governance for decades. Other insiders have been added to the small IANA clique that controls the allocation of resources. Jaw-dropping compensation packages are used to pad organizations with people who seem to accomplish very little. An Internet Society (1992) was formed to protect jack-booted thugs who claimed to be Internet Engineers. Some did not have a high-school diploma. Vigilantes emerged, as Internet self-government took on a life of its own. Socialist/Communist structures dominated. Mercenaries and Soldiers of Fortune are now becoming more common. Some describe the state of affairs as the book, "Lord of the Flies", combined with the book, "A Brave New World"[1]. Juvenile delinquents populate many of the Internet Governance Forums. They SELF-APPOINT themselves to Internet Governance roles. The Multi-Stakeholder Model allows anyone to claim anything and even represent the U.S. Government. [1]"Orwell feared we would become a captive culture. Huxley feared we would become a trivial culture, preoccupied with some equivalent of the feelies, the orgy porgy, and the centrifugal bumblepuppy." Pseudo-Governance Officials [Private Citizens] make up the rules, to suit their PRIVATE financial needs. Corruption, kick-backs, black-listing, red-lining, etc. are common. Off-Shore operations in the Cayman Islands, the Caribbean and Switzerland handle the anonymous opaque financial transactions. The ISOC-IETF-IANA-ICANN-RIR Cartel is called The Eco.System. It is actually a simple Multi-Level-Marketing empire built on TAX collections from unsuspecting Netizens. The insiders are well-funded and travel the world, promoting their Multi-Stakeholder MLM. One participant in the ISOC-IETF Meetings and the ARIN Meetings claims he "Represents the JUSTICE DEPARTMENT". This juvenile delinquent has a long history working with Jon Postel - IANA. They both use "word games" to misinform novice observers and the general public. These unprofessional players think omitting "US" from the title gets them by. At a subsequent meeting, the individual claimed he was "contracted with the FBI". Later in the meeting, he gave his affiliation as [not audible mumble words]. Juvenile delinquents treat the Internet Governance meetings as some sort of Video Game. They are not accountable for their actions. It is not clear if the US Department of Justice provides any over-sight of these individuals. In one case, it appears that ICANN is contracting with a private security company, which claims to have a long history of "working with the FBI". That is not the same as "being the FBI". In another case, ICANN appears to employ a well-known computer hacker who runs a major trade-show in Las Vegas each year. He commands an army of over twenty-five thousand techies who pride themselves on breaking into computer systems. ICANN and the ISOC-IETF Eco.System endorse and promote the Culture of Corruption. Young people are confused and drawn into the CULT. Bob, Carol, Ted, and Alice now control the packet flows, sell copies, and contract with U.S. Government agencies or The.ECO.SYSTEM to compromise other citizen's systems. Most government officials were intentionally excluded from the early Internet. Other Government officials were "used" as enablers and shields, to hide the development of the insidious ISOC.IANA Cartel. Major telecom carriers were also intentionally excluded. Internet operator groups, dominated by psychopathic attention-starved jerks grew to become the hubs of control. The NSF funded NANOG is one example. Ted is a Member of NANOG. Carol lords over ARIN which secretly funds NANOG. American consumers, are accustomed to regulated companies, with ethical standards, managing their critical telecom and data facilities. Unsuspecting consumers have been intentionally kept in the dark by the Multi-Stakeholder Cartel (MSC). Juvenile delinquents dominate the various gatherings of the MS Cartel. Consumers have no idea they are vulnerable to these amateur network operators. Self-serving academics coddle the juveniles and deflect government scrutiny with fabricated distractions. They are called WMDs - Weapons of Mass Distraction. With the TCKS Internet Architecture, Non-Government [self-appointed] Vigilantes can snoop and spy on individuals and groups. In some cases, they [Bob & Carol] are willing to sell their services to anyone that will pay them. For decades they have demonstrated that their ethical norms are far different from the American Telco industry. They pride themselves on being what many people would summarize as, Cyber Bullies. These Cyber Bullies and Street Gangs have also taken it upon themelves to SELL valuable US Government ASSETS in the form of Address Spectrum The Internet IPv4 Address Space is no different from Radio Spectrum, managed for the public, by the US FCC. A typical ICANN IANA IPv4 Address Allocation has a street value of over $3,000,000,000 (yes Billion). The U.S. Government has been a casual party to many of the legacy Internet evolutions. In the early days, the National Science Foundation NSF meddled in network developments, with mixed results. A few major universities and academic personalities did very well, financially, once they figured out how to game the NSF Grant processes. They obtained Artificially Scarce Network Resources (ASNR) via NSF Grants and then sold them for private gain. The NSF looked the other way. Subtle financial kick-backs to the NSF greased the process. As commercial companies began to migrate to the legacy Internet, the U.S. Government over-sight shifted from the NSF to the U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC). A DOC sub-agency, NTIA, handled most of the tasks. The obscure Internet Cartel function called "IANA" was morphed into a California Public Benefit Non-Profit company called ICANN - the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names & Numbers. (1998) In general, non-profit corporations have been used as shells to hide the true financial dealings of the Internet Cartel (MSC). Cyber Bullies openly proclaim that they are non-profit "religions" while secretly banking millions. In some cases, they also have a for-profit vest-pocket company. Their ethics are justified under THEIR, unwritten, shifting rules of the "International" Multi-Stakeholder Model. Since 1998, ICANN has evolved into a corrupt private companion to the Internet Society (ISOC-IETF) founded in 1992. The private ISOC-IETF ICANN-IANA ARIN Eco.System skillfully used the US Government as a shield and enabler for decades. The DNS Cyber Tax system has been used to fund their lavish travel and world-wide outreach programs. ICANN has now been captured by nefarious "International Operatives", primarily from Egypt and the Middle East. The arrogance of the ISOC IANA Eco.System has no bounds. The ISOC IANA Eco.System is carefully structured with Clerics, Insiders, Militia, Operatives, Thugs, Groupies, and what Lenin and Stalin called Useful Idiots. Artificially Scarce Network Resources (ASNR) are used to control the Eco.System. Aging dictators control the cartel, supported by people who attend meetings to "see famous people". Elections are not viewed as desirable or possible in the Eco.System - "The Wrong People Might Get Elected". It is ironic, the Eco.System often claims credit for developments that were done to protect USA consumers FROM the Eco.System. Many USA Netizens work hard in normal business roles to AVOID the Eco.System. The vast majority of USA Internet companies avoid the Eco.System. The Eco.System attempts to co-opt key developments with their vast war-chests of money. Some groups succumb to the bribes. The W3C is one example. Tim has entered the picture using Bob, Carol, & TED. ICANN-IANA and ISOC-IETF have systematically delayed and derailed competition as they have grown their non-profit empire to billions of dollars and million dollar executive compensation packages. The lack of Term-Limits has allowed individuals to become career Internet politicians. Jaw-dropping compensation packages and non-profit war chests of cash reserves are used by the Eco.System players to dominate Internet Governance. American citizens have been openly threatened with death by the ISOC-IETF Thugs, who surround the IANA as a protection force. Recently, the U.S. Government, via NTIA, has announced their intention to distance themselves from the Legacy ICANN IANA ISOC Internet. This Diplomatic move has confused many American consumers. Most Americans are not aware of who runs their Internet [and from where??]. The ICANN-IANA ISOC leaders have recently openly joined with South American leaders. Latin America has a long history of some of the most corrupt telecom and social regimes on the planet. Bases have also been opened in Turkey and Singapore. The Eco.System Cartel claims to be "international" and immune from USA laws and scrutiny. It is ironic that the Eco.System finds much of its deep political support from CHINA and the corrupt regimes of AFRICA. Africans fall all over themselves rushing to the next Face-2-Face Meetings (Talk Shops) run by Self-Appointed Napoleans. Wisely, the U.S. Congress has directed the NTIA to lead the construction of a new Internet, called FirstNET. Federal funding is being allocated to States that step forward to help. The State of Colorado has landed the Technical Headquarters for FirstNet. The State of Virginia has been selected to handle the FirstNet Administrative Headquarters. FEMA Regions have been suggested for organizing FirstNet. FirstNET does not directly and daily serve all Netizens. A NEW USA Domestic Internet (SecondNET) is still needed. Netizens in the USA need to rely on an Internet they can trust. One plan calls for FOUR-State Regions, called SuperStates, to act as the major Hubs for the USA SecondNET. Sixteen SuperStates would form the basic structure for the USA DOMESTIC Internet. Since FirstNet plans to leverage existing network facilities, FirstNET would be one of the first customers for the USA DOMESTIC SecondNET. Elected US Senators, would automatically be appointed as the leaders of SecondNET. As the Attorney General of the United States of America, you have the difficult task of helping Americans protect themselves from the Cyber Bullies who control the Internet. This is very similar to trying to protect American citizens living along the border of Mexico. It is very hard to sort out and neutralize, the Cyber Bullies. The design and construction of a SecondNET companion to FirstNET will help to provide a more robust framework for the USA Internet. I hope that you support the FirstNET and SecondNET movements. I also hope that you remain vigilant about who is claiming to represent the US Justice Department and/or the FBI. Joe Concerned Citizen State of ____________ P.S. The ISOC IANA Eco.System is not going away. They are rapidly moving away from the USA to International venues, they can exploit. They advocate splitting the Internet with their IPv6 technology. The USA can protect itself with a unified solution. The USA is a Republic, not a Democracy, and certainly not a MultiStakeholder Street Gang. The Republic of States and SuperStates collectively designing, building and operating a NEW USA Domestic FirstNET and SecondNET will help to protect consumers and visitors to our CyberSpace. =============================================================== "This is a temporary list to be used as the mechanism for collecting public feedback on the IANA stewardship transition." @Techno_CAT_r http://Twitter.com/Techno_CAT_r <http://twitter.com/Techno_CAT_r>

Robert:
It will depend: if the final option is to keep the function under the ICANN umbrella, then my understanding is that ICANN will keep financing it. On the other hand, if it is moved outside ICANN, then i presume it can be supported by all entities requiring its services.
