In one week, President Obama will allow what remains of the United States’ control over the Internet to pass to a California non-profit organization, ICANN. This is a reckless, dangerous decision that has serious national security consequences that have not been fully considered. NTIA contract with ICANN expires Oct 1, 2016. Even though it could be extended for any period through Sep 2019, upon expiration, President Obama has agreed to let the Dept of Commerce hand full control over IANA functions to ICANN, effectively ceding last control that US has over Internet to an ambitious non-profit organization that will have no ties to the US Govt.
Pls Sign & Circulate.
