[NA-Discuss] CALL FOR MEMBERS: At-Large Public Interest Working Group

[Evan Leibovitch]

Perhaps this is all true, if expressed in a dickish way. Nonetheless, it's
totally irrelevant to the issues of this list.

But has anyone done an analysis of the effect of the Panama Papers on the
domain industry? I say this only half in jest -- I recall that the bulk of
TLD registrations came from companies in places known for being tax havens.

It would be fascinating to know who is financing the horror story that is
the gTLD expansion(s).

- Evan


PS: It would probably be a good idea to roll the remnants of the dormant
Future Challanges WG into Wolf's Public Interest one, they appear to share
objectives. I will happily offer myself to be in the group, but cannot
promise significant capacity to participate.
