Registrars Rebel Against ICANN Budget

I_am_Rambi writes "According to an article on News.com.com, ICANN is having to rework their budget. 'ICANN, based in Marina del Rey, Calif., is facing a tight deadline to revise its record $15.8 million budget to placate a growing number of rebellious registrars united in opposition to a new fee structure....Fearful that the combined fees could top $19,000 and put them out of business, 75 smaller registrars have banded together to protest the budget.'"

That's exactly what I want to see happen. The major problem with the internet is that it relies on centralized DNS systems. As private companies take over this function with localized customization, the entire system will grow more robust and less tolerant of shenanigans.
