Everyone who uses the Internet has a stake in domain names, since it
is only possible to send email, surf the Web, have a website, and do
all the other things that the Internet allows through a domain name,
either someone else's or your own. 

If a person can't get their own domain name, they must use someone
else's and pay for the privilege. That is what the Internet
infrastructure busiesses, and big business and the IP lawyers who
represent it, would like. The rest of us want domain name
registration to be open to all and economically accessible to all as
well, without restriction or pressure.

So we all, every one of us, has a stake in how domain names are
allocated.
