The Asociacion de Usuarios de Internet (AUI), a Spanish Internet organization listed on the ICANN website as a supporting organization for ISOC's claim to be the organizer of the Non-Commercial Constituency of the DNSO of ICANN, is a front for Javier Sola, the AUI's secretary, who is the President of the European Internet Business Association and an organizer of the DNSO's Business Constituency. The ICANN board apparently plans to allow these disreputable charlatans to take over the Non-Commercial Constituency of the DNSO in Berlin, since they can afford to travel there while the legitimate non-commercial users cannot and the ICANN board refuses to institute a mechanism for proxy- or online voting. This farce, straddling the fence of illegality, is being supported and abetted by the U.S. Department of Commerce in the person of Beckwith Burr.
