Nominet runs .uk and associated internets stuff. This is quite important stuff for a quite important economy. It is a monopoly for that function and has minimal oversight by stakeholders other than "members" - ISPs, not you and me. You and me seem to have a minimal importance despite being the actual end subjects. My .co.uk website is a subject but I have no say in my country's internet governance. I won't dwell on monarchical parallels here!

Over the last few years Nominet (a non profit in the UK sense) have been accused of inflating Director's salaries and attempting projects outside their remit (which have lost money) - vanity projects.

The governance rules look ridiculous: GoDaddy (large US firm) has more say than many UK ISPs by being a big fat thingie. GD did of course stand up for their customers by abstaining (I may be wrong here by being a day or two out of date)

Thankfully the campaign run on https://publicbenefit.uk/ actually worked.
