Yeah, right, and they'll call upon UN forces to defend security and
stability of the internet. How long till they criminalize inclusive/
alternate roots?

Not necessary. The UN is now just another bureau of the U.S. Gov't, as
witness its activities in ex-Yugoslavia (e.g. sending "UN observers"
picked by the US State Dept. to Kosovo). ICANN will probably end up in
D.C., where the UN is run from.
