Apologies crossed wires!
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I don’t think there is any concern over the registries and registrars funding a new IANA entity but rather if that funding came via ICANN rather than directly to the new entity.</div>
<div>Not from my perspective in any case, open to other points of view from the various communities.</div>

<div>And my question: Where does IANA’s money come from now. My understanding is that the NTIA’s only role is oversight - not funding. If that is the case, then industry (registries/registrars) already fund IANA functions - so the call for IANA functions
to remain cost free is simply an extension of the present situation (without NTIA oversight). Any corrections welcome.</div>

I think that funding an impartial public service via a privately interested stakeholder without introducing allegations/impressions of influence or control would be close to impossible.
<div>Thus an alternative funding model for an independent IANA entity, should that be the option chosen, must be considered and be discussed.</div>

<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>ICANN already has more than ample resources to ensure that the present and future IANA is fully funded on a public service basis, as at presen</div>
