Did you have a model of governance in mind? I'm at a loss to think of one that I would prefer to the current one, as bad as it is.

Keep it as is but have it owned by the fed.

Which fed? ICANN is an international organization. They used to be overseen by the US Department of Commerce, but that relationship ended (with some controversy) a few years ago.

Any fed of sufficient size and diplomacy. US, EU, whatever. Anyone who has an iota of accountability, internal or external, would be better than the current owner.
