Who owns the internet?

Who owns the internet and..?

  • if no one person or company owns the internet, what's stopping someone from making a new domain name such as " .aaa " or ".dad like www. hotmail.dad ? there must be someone somewhere stopping us from creating such links, no? so who is it?

  • Answer:

    No one owns the internet but an international association controls all this stuff The Association that controls all this stuff is ICANN - Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers Hope that will help you! Google ICANN for more details!

Other answers

ICANN gives licenses to other companies called registrars where you can purchase any domain

Domain Names are controlled by iCann and iCann brings out the Domain Extensions like .com , .net , .org etc.

No one owns the internet, but ICANN controls which domains get added.
