A vast oversimplification, but to answer your question, this ship has sailed.

The Internet is effectively just computers being connected to each other and ultimately no one outside any given network could ever enforce how it operates. The rest of the world deferring to a U.S. organization like ICANN can be labeled as a courtesy fueled by inertia and pragmatism, which has been naturally and inevitably eroding over time.

that's not how the internet works (by design I might add)


edit-and to be clear, I'm talking to the OP not the post above mine which is 100% correct
