system, in which ICANN reviews itself, is clearly biased and ICANN answers to
no one but contracted parties. A recent example is the request for an
“independent expert” for its Accountability and Transparency Review. ICANN is
choosing its own researcher to assess its decision-making to determine if it is
aligned with the principles of the AoC. Doing this creates an inappropriate
relationship between ICANN and the experts involved.</span><span
