No thanks. If the real action is going to be the downmarket private agreements who in their right mind will volunteer to do work in ICANN? This process is a direct threat to the ICANN model with the logical end result being progressives calling for government intervention to prevent industry cartels from setting market conditions that threaten every value the NCSG was created to protect. Need I suggest that the day we have to call on the governments of the world to protect our free speech rights online is the day there no longer is such a thing. Of course when what NCSG member Rebecca McKinnon so brilliantly called Facebookistan, when applied to governance of social media by terms of service boilerplate agreements, is extended in a modified fashion to the entire dns there may be no other option.<br><br>The process stinks, the policy stinks and this group needs to stand up for true multi-stakeholder principles and demand industry standards, floors and ceilings, be set inside ICANN, not outside of it. Otherwise the Donuts - MPAA agreement is the beginning of the end of this model of internet governance. <br><br>No compromise, no surrender.<br><br>Ed</span></span></div></div></blockquote></div><br></div></div>
