Jefsey,
ITU-T is quite insistent that they make _Recommendations_ only. Interpretation and enforcement is up to each individual government. They also insist that they have never, and do not intend to try, to extend or interpret the provisions of the radio frequency treaties that permits the Radio Bureau (and WARC) to make binding regulations about, e.g., frequency use, to extend to telephony, the Internet, or similar topics.
That is in sharp contrast to your "Law is necessarily ITU" assertion... sharp enough that, if logic is applied, there are only two possibilities:
(1) The senior ITU personnel who fairly regularly make those statements are trying to obscure their real power and plans, if not outright lying about them. If that were true --and, for the record, I don't believe it is-- it would be irrational to trust them with the Internet or anything else.
(2) You are speaking nonsense, to the extent that it is probably irrational for any of us to continue reading or responding to your messages.
