I would agree here. I for one do not think ICANN should be
creating policy on content, be it SPAM, port or anything else.
that is something that should be left up to each country.
I would also state that as an ISP, I do not want to be Net.Police.

true in the Internet media, Governance is not efficient as this

I agree that regulating content (censorship) isn't the job of
ICANN or the more openly democratic bodies that (I hope)

support a global ban on all email with false or misleading
