@tuck-fheman What about NAMECOIN? Isn't it supposed to be like its own DNS or something ? Maybe that's the way to go? Anyone know more about Namecoin. I know I mined some it along time ago and it still exists.

What Will Happen to Steemit Once a Global Entity Controls ICANN?
Yes, there are alternatives ... but why break what works?
To me, this is nothing more than a way to further control what information is put forth on the Internet. If the "global entity" doesn't like what is being said on a website, now they will have the ability to do something about it and the U.S. Government can just sit back and smugly smile while publicly proclaiming "it's a travesty!". They will pretend to fight it, much like Cruz's PIFA to keep the voting public on their side and their sorry asses in office.
This is simply passing the buck and blame to an outside agency that the US Government can point to as another boogeyman down the road. While in reality whoever gains control will be doing exactly what those who have the perceived power want them to do to keep them in power and the rest of us stifled with only their brand of "news" and information.

There are several promising projects.
Maidsafe, IPFS, Freenet, Commotion - there are many hackers who are interested in preserving freedom.
If they (i.e. the Power Elite, the Establishment, etc.) try a crackdown, lots of people will notice and push back.
