Thanks John.  I’m convinced this is not an ICANN remit issue.

> In the unlikely event that anyone's still interested, the FCC's new order only mentions the DNS in three places, in paragraphs 28, 29, and 37.  The context is that ISPs often run a DNS cache as an ancillary service, and it asks what difference it would make if they didn't, presumably directing their users to a third party service like 8.8.8.8 or 9.9.9.9.  While that's a semi-interesting question in trying to decide whether ISPs are a telecom or enhanced service, it has, as I've repeatedly pointed out, nothing to do with ICANN and its oversight of domain name management.

Again, semi-interesting in context, but nothing to do with anything ICANN does.
