A wise blog post from  Kieren McCarthy, far away from the hysterical
anti-UN bashing we have been served lately.

A quote, seemingly targetted at ISOC and friends:

"Does the broader Internet community have to remain ever vigilant? Does
it need to make a huge fuss for every major international conference
just to keep people honest? Is this a never-ending fight to stop some
governments from trying to take over the Internet?

The answer, we would argue, is a qualified No. But those who claim to
defend the open Internet need to become more honest and less reactive if
they are to be trusted with a job that they insist they are entitled to."

Cheers,

Patrick
