Re: [ga-icann] Registrar contracts

["William S. Lovell" <cereba@OregonVOS.net>]

Of course, all of this bypasses the theory that ICANN is a technical
coordinating body for global internet interconnectivity, and becomes
what many decry (and say it is not), namely, the God of the Internet
that establishes all global policy.  While it is certainly true that a vast
amount of consumer protection is required on the net, I doubt
seriously whether (a) ICANN should be the guru on the subject; and
(b) I doubt even more that ICANN has the ability to do the same in
any event.
