Roberto,

The Internet is not a public telecommunications network regime.
It is a shared user network.

Under the PTO regime, the authoritative TLDs are designated 
by Administrations under ITU-T Rec. F.401

Under the Internet regime, authoritative TLDs (cc or otherwise) 
are determined by the prevalent user arrangements.
