Source: www.domainnews.com In his speech at the ICANN meeting in Cairo, the ITU\'s Hamadoun Touré spoke openly of the ongoing \'war\' between ICANN and the ITU writes Milton Mueller. Mueller notes Touré demanded a stronger role for governments in ICANN, dismissed ICANN\'s GAC as cosmetic (quite wrong says Mueller) and correctly accused the IGF of avoiding issues but also rather harshly dismissed it as a waste of time. Mueller commended Touré for his forthrightness, which is all too rare in international organizations. Unfortunately, his blunt speech supports the wrong cause.
