I agree that regulating content (censorship) isn't the job of
ICANN or the more openly democratic bodies that (I hope)
will emerge down the road. As for spam, however, I would
support a global ban on all email with false or misleading
addresses, plus a global rule for fast removal on-demand

"self-governance" mechanism is likely to arise. Whether it will be

Surely it is the economic liberalism fostered by internet trade in
commerce, ideas and content that means that either the question has
