[ga] A kind of fascism


Title: Help
The hijacking of our language by the Intellectual Property brigade, supported and condoned by ICANN, is one or the great offences of this "organisation" which purports to operate on behalf of the whole world.
 
Language belongs to the people, and the holding hostage of ordinary generic words is disgraceful.
 
Let's be frank : ICANN is craven and serves corporate industry, and American corporate industry in particular.
 
ICANN do what they do, because they have the power to do it, they have the backing, they do not need to concern themselves with ordinary and unknown people whose language they abduct and constrain.
 
As a novelist I regard this appalling and a kind of fascism.
 
Richard
