No! I agree with you that it seems like it should be cheap but imagine the UN ran it. China would veto ".tw" as just one example of the many problems with government type entity in charge.

Now China can simply buy Ethos Capital and run it. It's way cheaper than the UN.

I'm not arguing having Ethos Capital is good. I'm arguing the UN running it is not a solution. (nor any likely government body for that matter who will likely take down any organization they don't agree with)
