China is adding 3 Chinese character TLDs to its English .cn, creating a competing .com. Surfers can now access the Internet outside of servers controlled by ICANN, according to this article. It makes sense for China to do this, as they want complete control over access of information entering their country. It will be interesting to see if other countries follow their lead and set up more competing Internets.
