even though im not american, i must agree with smithy. america invented the internet, the rest of the world tapped in. they have no reason to hand over control. america isn't screwing with it, or sensoring anything. i dont see why they're complaining, its been fine so far. if the other countries fear the u.s. could cut them off in a conflict, well its their problem, its not their system to begin with.
