EU Deal Threatens End to US Dominance of Internet

At PrepCom3, a dramatic last-minute deal drawn up by the EU may mark the end of the US government’s control of the internet. In essence, [the EU called for] a new version of the current overseeing body ICANN and an end to the US government’s overall control of the DNS. The US was scathing about the proposals, within minutes telling delegates that it “can’t in any way allow any changes” that would prevent it from having overall control of the internet. Other countries, like Brazil, China, Iran and Cuba support the proposal. Brazil’s ambassador outlined: “It is not a question of being anti-ICANN, it’s about having a very clear and open and democratic and inclusive mechanism of overview of certain functions that today are performed by ICANN with no kind of supervision.”
