So, presumably, you and your colleagues are fighting to allow non-citizens to vote in your respective national elections.

Quoting RFC 1366 (from 1992): The major reason to distribute the registration function is that the Internet serves a more diverse global population than it did at its inception. This means that registries which are located in distinct geographic areas may be better able to serve the local community in terms of language and local customs. Whether or not this decision made 30 years ago was a mistake is, of course, a matter of opinion. However, as discussed in RFC 7020, section 5, the methodology by which Internet numbers registry system should evolve is: Per the delineation of responsibility for Internet address policy issues specified in the IETF/IAB/ICANN MOU [RFC2860], discussions regarding the evolution of the Internet Numbers Registry System structure, policy, and processes are to take place within the ICANN framework and will respect ICANN's core values [ICANNBL]. I would suggest it likely that many view the activities and efforts of LARUS and its associated entities as not particularly constructive in this regard. Regards, -drc
