UN plans Internet governance amid outcry to defund ITU

http://j.mp/Ut3YOs  (ZDNET)

    "A petition to de-fund the U.N.'s telecom arm emerges just as the ITU
     readies to hammer out internet governance plans at the World
     Telecommunication Information and Communication Technology Policy
     Forum meetings in February and May 2013.  The website De-fund the ITU
     surfaced on the January NANOG (North American Network Operators'
     Group) email list."

These petitions are a waste of time.  They will not affect UN/ITU policies
in any manner.
