How about

http://xn--8pru44h.xn--55qx5d/

Try to see their homepage!

You dont do bussiness with them?
But you are wearing their shoes.

Try to send them an email!

You dont talk to such fools?
But they are your customers.

One quarter of total internet populations needs to talk to them.

Chinese root-servers or Public-Root.

ICANN does not want them.
They dont want ICANN either.

European ISPs and Asian ISPs do change to the Public-Root because their
customers need to send emails to each other. Curiously enough their is
no SPAM on Public-Root email addresses. I thought the spammers were
located in Asia and Europe only?

In Africa there is not much internet technology yet. They build on
chinese technology because it is cheap and China supports their needs.

What if their need is censoring and perfect control?

And who controls ICANN? I am afraid they are out of control - reading
their mailing lists and reading the people who cry for unsubscribe.

Have a nice weekend,
