Way old news chap, my daughter knew this before and after you claim it as your knowledge.
Perhaps her old man read tea leaves.

All,

I hate to say I told you so, but...

See: http://www.zdnet.com.au/news/security/0,2000061744,39200026,00.htm

The US Department of Commerce has reversed its
original decision on the Internet's root DNS servers, which would have
eventually seen them pass into the hands of ICANN. While the original
decision would have seen ICANN take full responsibility after it met a
number of conditions, the new declaration means Commerce would keep that

control, regardless of whether and when those conditions are met. It is
possible that some countries could withdraw support from ICANN, and this

decision even opens up the gate for a separate DNS system to be
established outside the US's control.
