ICANN is an organization which manages the “assignment of domain names and IP addresses” for the internet. Currently there is a lot of controversy over why ICANN, an American organization is the one to basically run the internet. Foreign countries want to denationalize because they do not agree with the United State’s “dominance of the Internet's domain name system”.
For many foreign countries, the use of their language on the internet makes it difficult for international communications. Also, different countries have different laws and the fact that ICANN is based in the United States can raise issues. “A system of Internet law, meantime, is evolving, and there are neutral legal forums available to air grievances and right wrongs”.
While some people are urging denationalization, others believe that there is no need to change anything about ICANN.
"If there was ever a time to invoke the maxim, 'If it ain't broke, don't fix it,' this is it," said Morris, who also served as a senior official in the Justice Department in Washington.”
"The Internet is an agreement to use a small number of communications protocols, and it needs almost no governance at all,"
ICANN is trying to evolve with the fast pace the internet is growing globally, perhaps they deserve a chance to catch up before any large changes are made.
