Who holds the seven keys to the Internet?


The Guardian brings us this video report on the individuals who - in theory at least - exercise ultimate control over the entire Internet.





Interesting. I wonder how long it takes the NSA to crack the encryption of those keys? I'm betting minutes, if not seconds . . . they seem to have destroyed everyone else's privacy, after all, so why should they give a flying figment about ICANN's?

ICANN is, for the most part, a sub-division of the NSA.

Check back a few years when it got the "contract" to manage all the top-level DNS servers. The list of company principals is replete with names of ex-NSA personnel, ex-Perfumed Princes, ex-Intel Services types, and ex-or still current government contractors who worked and work for the NSA.
