I'll have to find some info on it for ya. When the US gave up control of the root it essentially defaulted to UN control. ICANN says they are "independent" and are only there to "serve the community" but they are far from it. They were controlled by the US Department of Commerce before, now some (forgot which) entity within the UN oversees them now. It's a corrupt organization just like any other governmental body and they'll go along with this all day long. In fact they're behind the idea of allowing the FCC to issue licenses to have a website. There again more control.
