Story: Net rule by divine right is not the American way

I can see one advantage of letting the net be run by an international agency - the threat of Spam.
All have said that the spam threat needs to be addressed globally. Any one nation can not address spam. Can spam has not been fully effective as you cannot, under any sane law, sue a chinese company hosted on a australian server.
But international agencies do have this remit.
Whether they have the effectiveness is another issue. But at the moment the net has a powerful master that has no control over his children!
The US has addressed many of its fears through international treaties before, let the internet become the same.
