But you forgot to say that this treaty iis codified inside of most Country's
body of law or in their internal regulations and so that the level it
touches the normal mortal it is law or regulation. Look at how in the US the
FCC enforces the ITU's rules as applicable.

Now I think that the final dot actuality refers to the "default or ICANN set
of Root Servers" and that is really that as they say. The concept of a ROOT
is tied directly to that which resolves it.
