Talk about Intellectual Property theft... Apparently, the EU was serious about getting into a war with the US. Your latest trick is demand that the United States turn over control of Internet master directories, even though it was our money and ingenuity that built the thing in the first place. With all due respect, who the hell do you guys think you are? I understand the arguments that you simply want to 'distribute addresses freely and fairly to all' and all that, but there are other ways of accomplishing that. If you folks really think the US is just going to turn over control of all the Internet master directories (at least with a Republican in the White House) you're off your rockers.
