White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest told reporters on Thursday that ceding U.S. control of the Internet to foreign governments is essentially a form of limited government.
Texas Senator Ted Cruz and other concerned lawmakers are fighting to prevent the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), a California nonprofit, from falling into the hands of a “multi-stakeholder” global body. A Commerce Department agency will relinquish oversight of ICANN on Oct. 1 unless Congress intervenes.
“[Sen. Cruz’s argument] doesn’t withstand scrutiny,” Mr. Earnest said, the Washington Examiner reported. “It also strikes me as a curious position for a self-described small government conservative to shut down the government to ensure that the federal government can continue to control the Internet. It doesn’t make any sense.”
