Do countries/businesses have to affiliate or utilize any of those services provided by ICANN other than the assignment of an IP address? And can you get away with LAN/CAN/MAN stand-alone systems [instead of utilizing DNS-via-ICANN]?? Example: Is it legal to cut off those DNS systems and loop in backwards?
