RE: [ga] A puzzle about ccTLDs and sovereignty
If I understood correctly, Professor Froomkin's comment was precisely in the
sense that sovereigns for whom a ccTLD has been set may dispose of it
however they please, whether by assigning its adminsitration to a private
entity by means of a concession (as I understand is the case of .tv), or
otherwise in accordance with its national law.
However some sovereigns may, I beleive, find it difficult to find sufficient
legal basis to assert their powers over the corresponding ccTLD, as well as
to classify it within their national assets.
Atentamente, Regards

Not at all - the point is different: since a ccTLD is to be managed by
its country, then the country may decide to do whatever it wants with
it. But it is the country that must do so, not ICANN/IANA on behalf of
the U.S. government.
