[council] Why are users interested?

Adrian, fellow Councillors,

OK a serious reply.

My organisation represents global and local branded fmcg.

For these companies the Internet is a fundamental part of their business model.

An ideal Internet is one that is:

- understandable

- competitive

- free from fraud, counterfeits, and means of reputational damage.

 

In as much as ICANN policies can directly or indirectly contribute to an Internet that is:

- confusing,

- uncompetitive,

- crime ridden,

 

we are interested to be involved.
