Who knows me and you in cyberspace?and how? Have you ever thought about it? Is there anything like a Yellow Book in the internet that records all numbers and addresses?If you want to find any one from the Internet your task is typing his address or name into your computer. Of course, the address is unique (has to be) therefore, the computer guides you to the exact person that you target.But the question is , is there any one or any organization that is responsible for this case? If any conflict happens who can solve it and base on which regulation?Following are some information that I found in order to answering to these questions.
In 1998, the U.S Department of Commerce managed to creation a nonprofit regulatory body with responsibility of administration of the Internet name and address. The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers established in response. According to the ICCAN website ,ICANN coordinates these unique identifiers across the world. Without that coordination we wouldn't have one global Internet.ICCAN also claimed in its website that it helped design and implement a low-cost system for resolving disputes over domain name ownership.
