With ICANN51 underway in Los Angeles, California, the progressive state’s technocrats are pushing for gender equality on yet another field.
Cybersquatting, a male dominated field, is about to expand its reach to include women – if the ICANN CEO’s proposal for a “Unigender Committee” is approved.
“It is time to lift the existing gender inequality among domain squatters, and expand the multi-stakeholder paradigm across both genders,” said Fadi Chehadé, ICANN president and CEO.
“Our reach across the male-dominant field follows the guidelines set forth during ICANN50 in London, where we decided to allow women leadership roles within ICANN’s sub-subcommittees,” added Fadi Chehadé, gesticulating for emphasis.
ICANN is facing many challenges, and the introduction of equality across the sexes – even for controversial roles as domain squatters – will raise the possibilities for a much-anticipated Internet shifting of power, away from US Government control.
