Breitbart is just reporting what the FCC Commissioner said. Regardless how you feel about Breitbart, ICANN no longer being under US jurisdiction opens up the way for worldwide internet censorship.

In this case. That line of thinking is a serious stretch.

You haven't answered my question.

Your question is not relevant to the issue at hand. You can read about the ICANN handover from your news provider of choice and the issue remains the same.

Once ICANN is outside of US Jurisdiction, international law can be used to censor the internet without the first amendment as a barrier.
