[cooperation-wg] Cruz and Co Send ICANN Another Letter

Yes. So many people and so many different hats. One can easily get confused. 

But my attention to this was drawn by a post by Steve Crocker.

So speaking for myself - no hat! - I wonder again how different people think ICANN relates to the various sovereign states around the world. The last time I looked ICANN was still a not-for-profit incorporated in California. So a charity subject primarily to Californian law?

PS Trivia question of the moment: how does ICANN’s budget compare with the ITU budget?
