Philosophy Wire by Spiros Kakos [2012-11-21]: ICANN faces great problems with hundreds of applications to register new domains. Who will register the .islam domain? Who has the right to represent Islam? Who will register the .book domain? Or the .philosophy domain? [source: BBC News] The wrong decision is such a seemingly "technological" matter will determine a lot more than just a domain...
