Who Controls The Internet? US Government Hands Over Control To ICANN

Since the dawn of the Internet, the world wide web has been controlled by the U.S. government’s Commerce Department. As of Saturday, the American government is no longer in charge despite the efforts of conservative lawmakers.

ICANN includes a Government Advisory Committee, which has representation from 111 states around the world, including 108 UN members and the Holy See, the Cook Islands and Taiwan.
