Some Say The U.N. Should Control The Internet

Companies and organizations now can apply for a Web address all their own, with their own suffixes. Along with dot-com and dot-org, we may soon see dot-Starbucks or dot-New York. The move focuses attention on the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers. ICANN is currently the only organization with the authority to regulate the global Internet ? but that could change. The change in naming rules raises questions about who, if anyone, should control the Internet. Some countries say the United States has too much influence over the Internet and advocate instead that it be placed under the control of the United Nations.
