<p>This development could, at some point in future, be used to justify a need for different "Internet Layers" arguably to fix emergent single points of failure. They may be "InterNet","RegNet" and "NatNet". Users could choose which network the wish to login to. International, Regional or National. Of course, one would expect "internet fragmentation" counter argument. I am just thinking out loud here...</p>

<div>I think it is just a matter of very short time until someone will connect
ICANN in some way to this. Even if ICANN has nothing to do with anything, it is
a god send for the UN and ITU, they just need to mention ICANNs status as a US
foundation. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>We can see it as a problem or I think here is a opportunity. The root of
all these problems is still the fact that the general public depends on the
Internet, but does not know anything about how it is governed and run. ICANN
suddenly looks a very very old organization because it is not capable to address
the real issues of the time and is stuck in the past. What is needed now is a
big push towards true democratization of the Internet, as awareness and
involvement by all is the only way to govern the beast. It is the general
ignorance that lets those in power get away with it. If I know that and how
things are done I can try to control them, if I don’t even know the basics I am
just condemned to ignorance and in this case ignorance is NOT bliss.
(When, oh when will we finally accept that the Internet is a common good and can
and should not be in parts or as a whole be owned by anybody. We need a
universal declaration of Internet rights NOW!). You might have seen the
emails and activities regarding this topic in the last month and weeks,
(I-Inform alliance), so you will know the tools and concepts are in place, what
is missing is the will and effort to do it now!</div>
