[NCUC-DISCUSS] NomCom Review

[James Gannon]

And translating that into our current discussion, as I asked in my previous question, does the then mean that you don’t feel our colleagues across the GNSO are motivated by anything other than profit, that there is no common ground for us to find, or that we cannot support them or they cannot support us on issues of ‘decency and humanity’?

I'm not saying that businesses and humanity couldn't be combined or that businesses aren't able to do the right thing, every now and then, but when it comes to making a choice between the two, businesses will choose profit. I don't see any around that.

Raoul,

I am pretty sure you are familiar with my past history. :)

I have spent a heck of a lot of time fighting to make the
internet not so much a humane and decent but free and equal place,
while at the same time making money off (or through) it. The
same goes for some of my friends who founded EFF.
