RE: [ga] Haiti, the Internet and ICANN

["Debbie Garside" <debbie@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

OK.  I'm going to say this one more time.  I gave no opinion on America or
Americans and the conclusions you have drawn are quite wrong .  I gave
examples of situations around the world that could be considered human
rights issues, including one from the UK, to support my view that to bring
this sort of thing into the ICANN forum is quite wrong.  Where would it
stop! I think Eric's email summed it up rather well.  May I, respectfully,
suggest you re-read my emails in this context.
 
Best regards
 
Debbie

Bashar and all,

 

  I have to go with Sotiris on this one.  Functioning for a ccTLD=having a

functioning noc or nic and a website.  IQ does not have one.  Maybe Haiti 

will, maybe not.  Point being wheather Haiti does or does not is largely 

irrelevant.  What is relevant is supporting a regime whom has for decades 

now supported vast fraudulent enterprises, consideres tourture of it's
countrymen 

and women, is a world renouned and UN recognized lawless regime, is simply 

not reasonable.  Ergo ICANN's decision to "Grant", for lack of a better
term, 

Haiti a ccTLD is unconsionable.

 

  As an aside and strictly coinsidental, I recieved a call from my CEO
informing

me that we will not be carring any of Haiti's traffic over any of our
networks.

I support my CEO's position on this.  So this means I will need to be
getting

my staff geared up for blocking any an all AFNIC IP addresses which are

routed from or to Haiti, and block and domain traffic as well.  I am sure in

due time spamhous and other services of that sort will be forced into doing

similar or same.  

 

And Sotiris, thank  you for your earlier support of America and Americans,

I and very sure most americans like myself feel the same about our fine

neibors to the north in Canada.  I am saddened and concerned that our

new participant, Debbie has such a negtive and uninformed view

of our american government, Americans, and seemingly our friends

the Canadian people.

they don't have a website up yet seems to be.<br>



    



Well, if the NIC doesn't have a web site, I would hardly call the .IQ

ccTLD functional.
