      Hi

      </div>
      <div class="">Yes, thanks Mamadou.  The first article, by a member
        of the US FCC, is notably pathetic and muddy headed.  The ICANN
        transition is bad because some ITU members want to set technical
        standards for the Internet of Things, China released a paper,
        and at an ITU SG meeting Russia and some African countries put
        forth a recommendation to define and potentially regulate
        "over-the-top” services.  So surely the ICANN model is broken.
         Sigh…and this is a guy who gets to gut net neutrality in the
        US...</div>
