The "USG" is a collection of people who largely protect land (dirt) in places on planet Earth.
In cyberspace, land is equivalent to IP address space allocations. Names are just road signs.
The long-term value is in the land...the allocations...those with allocations will protect them...

The I* society (small s...aka The Big Lie Society)...manipulates the USG to their advantage.
When there is money to be collected, it goes to the I* society. When there are other problems
those are referred up the food chain or ultimately to the USG. Look at the Registry charade.
If you have a complaint, the Registry claims that ICANN sets all of the policies. If you ask
ICANN, you either get no answer, are pointed back to the Registry, or, are referred to the
USG. If you ask the USG, you are of course referred back to ICANN and then to your
Registrar, which of course is "accredited" which simply means that some lawyers were paid
a lot of money to make that claim.

It is all a huge legal run-around...a huge bureaucracy...designed to protect the insiders...

...the good news is that there is no "end-game" for the I* society...via education, people
are becoming more enlightened...The Big Lie becomes more clear and people walk away
thus routing around the situation...
