For those reading, please understand this is intended for folks
operating at very high levels of generality. I made a decision that
trying to get into anything even vaguely close to details was not
likely to be productive. My hope is to balance the folks who will
say ICANN works just fine and doesn't need any change, and possibly
put some pressure on NTIA to force ICANN to adopt some real
accountability measures.
I should also make clear this does not purport to be testimony from
the NCUC. It is my personal testimony and that of my organization
based on my experience with and observations of ICANN.
