| #4 Go to the Dark Web, i.e.: rantburg.onion. Of course it will require tor to access, but may not be a bad thing. AFAIK, ICANN has no control over onion sites. |

| #3 Poisoning of public DNS has already begun. We will soon see restricted local (homenet) services, but what better way to trim (censor) objectionable traffic? Soon we'll do it like the darkies do, building our own LDAP with IP crawlers. |

| #1 If you have an online business or a popular website please note the following. ICANN, recently relegated to international groups by President Barack Obama, is now beginning to charge exorbitant fees to register or renew what they are now labeling "Premium" websites (domain names). Some fees so far as high as $35,000.00 a year. (For example: www.Documents.legal that has not yet been taken, ICANN is demanding $20,000.00 rather than the common $12 per year). The danger in this is if they decide www.Rantburg.com is a "Premium" website, they can demand tens of thousands of dollars a year for him to renew this site. File a formal complaint against ICANN with your state consumer protection agency or attorney general's office or both and with the Better Business Bureau. Contact conservative outlets about this atrocity as I am sure they will be targeted as well by ICANN. Pushing ICANN out to "International" groups takes away your constitutionally protected free speech rights on the internet. And they can now shut you down immediately via exorbitant renewal fees. |
