If the UN wants control of the INET WE invented. Let them build their own.
I think people get confused about who the stake holders in internet operation/governance really are... certainly ICANN allways was when I was actively observing it.
The stake holders with the most to lose are ordinary enduser consumers of interenet services. They just want to get their work / entertainment / communication done, and to the extent that technocrats, bureaucrats , crimnals , extremely greedy businesses , and rogue governments setup barriers that impede them from doing that they lose.
