> ICANN and the DNS system remains mostly-neutral as it should be

With emphasis on mostly. I believe most of the issues we have we DNS and name allocating could be solved if they were managed by an actual international non-profit organization. Alas, ICANN is an American for-profit company, whose corruption needs no more evidence.

If you don’t trust ICANN (and the generic top-level domains which they manage directly, like .com, .net, etc.), you might place more trust in the country code TLDs – which are independently managed by each country – where you may find a country with a more acceptable amount of corruption. Preferrably also in a country in which you have a legal presence.
