- If the Internet is an international entity, then it should be administered by an equally international body. The Obama administration's move to accept this truth is a marked deviation from the Bush era, and a move in the right direction.
- It is important to note that this move can create serious issues of both internationalization and localization of the Internet, particularly from the perspectives of scale and security. Many of these issues have already been raised by ICANN, but moving forward, a global perspective will certainly help to ensure that they will be addressed.
- It is not in anybody's interest to make the Internet an auction site for top level domains, and the rest of the world is perfectly capable of ensuring that frivolous domains are not turned into a money-making machine for ICANN and domain registrars. In other words, don't expect .sport or .cola to come into existence anytime soon.
- Unicode URLs are the route to making the Internet truly global, but aforementioned security issues need to be addressed and loopholes preempted. Once again, it's a grown-up world, and they can handle the pressure.
- Finally, the Internet gets to be truly international in almost all aspects. This means the European and Asian representatives on ICANN's Governmental Advisory Council now have to show that they can step up and shoulder the burden of shaping the Internet's future.
