Esther --
May I offer a general observation on your IFWP postings?
Terse retorts to report fragments avoid the larger issues.
Many would welcome a more meaningful exchange here.
Will you address the legitimacy of a governance body that's
presuming to govern without the consent of the governed?
There has never been a global vote giving permission
for ICANN to become our global Internet government.
How can you, a freedom advocate, a feminist, remain
blind to ICANN as the toy of boys who would be kings?
Are you fooling yourself into thinking your values rule?
Will generations yet unborn praise or condemn you?
Read your own words about the values needed today.

Walk away, Esther. Be the one who saves the world.
