[discuss] The "Internet Governance" confusion ...

[Jorge Amodio]

One more example about how the general public an the media interprets governance and the role some institutions play.

From the NYT:

"Icann, a nonprofit that oversees the Internet’s basic functions, like the assignment of names to websites, was established in 1998 by the United States government to create an international forum for “governing” the Internet. The United States continues to favor this group."
