A Crisis in Internet Governanace: ICANN, Trademarks, and Domain Names (05/06/99)

A Cato policy forum, featuring Professor Milton Mueller, Syracuse University, Professor David G. Post, Temple University Law School, and J. Beckwith Burr, NTIA. ICANN was created to administer basic rules for the Internet such as those determining how domain names are distributed. ICANN is now considering a WIPO proposal to create a forum to review domain names for trademark violations. When should an entity like ICANN assume functions usually performed by courts? What happens to due process and freedom of expression? Is ICANN itself a private or a governmental entity?
