Agreed: No government should have control of the internet
Not the UN, and not the US.

Governments inherently attract power-seeking people. This is not a good thing for that which it can be avoided.

Corporations should also not have control of the internet, as they are inherently profit-seeking, which is not a desireable way for the internet to run.

The current system is very good, and unlikely to have problems for a few decades, I would judge.

Anything else runs more risk of trouble during the changeover than staying with what we have now.
