I know who gets it. Xavier Becerra. He single-handedly forced .org to not be resold to a very private / hidden / non-transparent organization that was led by the former head of ICANN (Fadi Chehade). The world would be getting screwed by ICANN / PIR / Fadi if it were not for Xavier Becerra stepping in. He is single handedly fixed the ICANN corruption in this one case. Thank you Xavier. I don’t pay any attention to those that PIR tries to put forward as good stewards by you. You are a tarnished and pathetic and terrible organization!
Why give away $15,000 when the goal was to pilfer billions from the world? Crazy.
