Yes, there are alternate roots and alternate means of communication on 
the internet outside the realm of ICANN, but they have little to no 
relevance to what we are discussing. Our mandate is the ICANN-controlled 
realm. For all effects and purposes of our discussion, we can pretend 
only this world exists as ICANN has no relevance to the outside. Let's 
stick to that.
