Touré’s ITU still pushing for an Web counter-revolution by Milton Mueller
By on Nov 18, 2008 in Doman Name News
In his speech at the ICANN meeting in Cairo, the ITU’s Hamadoun Touré spoke openly of the ongoing ‘war’ amidst ICANN and the ITU writes Milton Mueller. Mueller notes Touré demanded a stronger role for governments in ICANN, dismissed ICANN’s GAC as cosmetic (quite wrong says Mueller) and correctly accused the IGF of avoiding issues but plus rather harshly dismissed it as a waste of moment. Mueller commended Touré for his forthrightness, which is all too rare in universal organizations. Unfortunately, his blunt speech supports the wrong cause.
