I support the idea that not all domain should be controlled by commercial society, I support the idea that internet is not only a merchandise, I support the idea that hundred of thousand people are dead for liberty and commercial society should not forget, never !
so .org at least must be managed by an organization, NOT a commercial society. That's obvious !

Corporations take money and exploit... not always, of course. Let a non-profit manage an environment they are directly invloved with.

Since the .org top-level-domain is the home of non- and not-for-profit organizations, it only makes sense that the maintenance of that TDL should be performed in a non-proprietary fashion, *not* by a for-profit corporation. The .org TDL is one of the most fundamental parts of the digital commons.
