agree, it is not an ICANN issue - but in absence of a formal ICANN statement some Internet users might have a different impression

The problem with Facebook was self inflicted. Perhaps the simplest
solution for ICANN would be a one page text with a graphic explaining
that Facebook (or other large company) is not the Internet.

The discussion on today's call seemed like a kind of regulatory
overreach with a desire to have ICANN tell large companies how to
construct their own network architecture. This really is not an ICANN issue.

For those who haven't seen it yet, the CloudFlare blog post on what
happened with Facebook is worth reading:
