you  are forcing me to have to respond to clear up your fallacies here.

the government doesnt own the namespace. auda is not a government body and 
does not report to the government. auda is supposed to be the industry self 
regulation body. registrars have no contract with the government. the 
government is entirely pro free market in this space. thats why we have a 
registry and registrars. and not just a government body like the rta handing 
out domains.

now please stop wasting everyones time with your invention, misinformation 
and utter nonsense. your ignorance is starting to really piss me off.
