While we keep using a name resolution system that requires uniqueness,
there is only one way to guarantee its uniqueness, a unique and
central authority (even if administration of some pieces is
decentralized such as the ccTLDs, that by virtue each one is also
unique and part of the overall system).
What we need is a novel and modern name and resource resolution
system, the current DNS has been overused and abused for way too many
things not contemplated in its original design, and the overall system
and ecosystem around it is a mess/chaos under control, plus driving a
several $B industry that exerts a lot of resistance to change.

It seems that ICANN is the point where it is most vulnerable to government
control because it is a point where domains can be removed from the
Internet. I'm wondering if there is a way to decentralize that, and if it
would be a good idea to do so if it could be done.
As I understand the technology, ICANN controls the root servers. Would it be
possible to have multiple root server systems outside of central control? Or
is there a way ICANN can operate outside of US control? To be able to say NO
to US law?
Just trying to think outside the box.
