Here's a deal for a venture capitalist: the VC funds the development of the internet. As an inducement, the VC is told that the return on his investment is that the internet will be handed over to some unrelated corporation, after which the VC will have access to the internet as a paying consumer. Now substitute "taxpayer" for "VC".
- immad 20y agohmm, well there is a limited supply for domain names and big demand. How else would they ration the domain names except by price? I guess if they were going to be completely fair all proceeds should go to charity, or back to the government or something...
