This is why we use IPR for intellectual property rights in the 
internet context to avoid confusion.

Understandable if you confuse with IPRs.

The reason why the inclusion of the IP address registry in the "DNS 
root" via the Afirmation of Commitment is that it is the only motive 
for a Judge to ultimately accept that the whole internet is not a 
personnal resource management (VGN) affair. IP allows individual 
people to interelate out of any private existing circle. They are 
therefore something which can be accepted as a civic system, subject 
to the law (provided that addresses are warrantied by State related 
national registries). In such a case it can be claimed that the use 
of a naming string is not a personal entry in a private system 
covered by privacy, but a pubic trade mark.

Again, one has to reivent everything if the NTIA removes itself (the 
same as the entire technology standardization process is to be 
reinvented after the IAB removed itself as the ultimate technical 
reference and source of guidance through the OpenStand/RFC 6852). And 
when I say everythng I mean it because all we have done up to now was 
to adjust the code's law to the US law, in the exceptional 
circumstance where the US Executive was making itself available to 
the multitude of non-US-citizens.

In the new situation we are to investigate/prepare, the laws (of 
every country, and in particular of the US which are at the core of 
the transition and want to protect their assets) must add to their 
people's national law a "code of the global interconnected multitude 
and of its environment" (the layer below international law: above the 
common people law). In that area we will have national multitudinal 
laws that may internationally conflict. This is the policracy we 
havee to explore, learn, and theorize.
