Renegade:
a new, trustworthy and international custodianship...

... and of course we've never seen a trustworthy custodianship usurped...

I worry about that.

Carol Haynes:
Much of the governance of the web (and other things) defaulted to the United States because the general perception was that the United States was law abiding, rational, predictable and fair.

Even funnier will be be seeing who has the kahunas to claim the role. Because from what I've got reading the news, there ain't any innocent sailors aboard for this trip.

If the EU, the PRC, and the RF are anything to go by, we're in for some great political grandstanding, holier-than-thou rhetoric, and hypocritical posturing before the dust finally settles.

I bet when it's over, it will end up being what the Who was talking about in the song Won't Get Fooled Again:

There's nothing in the street
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye
And the parting on the left
Is now the parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around me
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
Don't get fooled again
No, no!

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss

Don't get fooled again
No, no!
