What would occur if ICANN, at the behest of law enforcement, changed their rules to require a phone conversation explaining what the domain is for, forms filed in triplicate, a cheek swab, a rectal exam, and 1% ownership in the company?
If ICANN turns into an unacceptably bad actor for whatever reason, where does that leave the Internet, what is its recourse?
