Why does no one talk about ICANN centralization and alternatives like #OpenNic?
or email self hosting.
Freedom Money, Freedom Social, Freedom Hardware, yes. But all these relays and nodes run on .com's
Privacy technologies get a lot of attention, but the step after ones ISP gets very little. With anonymous mesh networks not taking off and with inherent infrastructure limitations, registering a real I.D with an ISP beholden to a state will remain for the forseable future. But after that step in the internet stack ? We should support as libre as possible right ?

Thoughts ?
For instance, if i want to set up a nostr relay i have to trust a third party at some point, for the TLD. Identity with them is reliant on an email instead of an npub assosiation.
It would be nice to have a server app market like in Umbrel where i can spin up my own Domain after some sort of anti spam measure like a crypto escrow or nostr vouching system.
ICANN appears to have a monopoly, whereas with nostr we can support and promote an alternative default system.
