Wolfgang:
What is the way out? In my eyes the Dilemma offers an opportunity to start a truly bottom up and open multistakeholder RFC-like process to find rough Consensus on the basis of "running code" (as the guidebook, some GAC advices and the experiences/contracts with the already existing GEO-TLDs, from .cat to .Berlin and .london).  I do not see any alternative to such a bottom up collaborative approach. Otherwise we end up in a GEO-TLD-War

Milton:
The alternative is to do nothing. Which is better. If real laws apply, apply them to what happens, using normal due process and limited jurisdictions. No need for ICANN to legislate expression on a global level. And please do not tell  me that speech restrictions are fine if they are done by a multistakeholder organization. As I have frequently said, I don'give a damn if the person censoring me is Vladimir Putin or a multistakeholder working group led by Wolfgang, it's still censorship.

Wolfgang:
Doing nothing will work as long as all parties involved more or less accept the Situation, even if it is unsatisfactory for them. But there are options that one party does not accept the Status quo and will start the above mentioned GEO-TLD-War. This can lead to collatoral damages with difficult to calculate consequences. To avoid this a proactive policy, which would include  bottom up PDPs and early Engagement of all affected stakeholders seems to me an approach which is based both on experience and wisdom. Cinflict prevention is always better that the handling of a conflict if the conflicth has already created "fighting parties". And I can not see that a multistakeholder arrangement, which lead to rough consensus based on the Sao Paulo Principles - which include human rights and freedom of expression - can be labeled as "censorship".
