Sure i know it is, what is strange is that US law rebukes organizations
with similar role as ICANN from supporting certain region. Well i was
hoping for a reference to that.

be talking ICANN/IANA if there ain't internet. So the point is why should i
participate in growing ICANN (through domain purchases for instance) and be
legally bound from benefiting from its initiatives....should there be any
such restriction in the first place? (if it indeed existed).

IMHO i think funding should be the major and perhaps only thing that could
make ICANN selective on which country to support.

Cheers!
