.au is listed by IANA as a top-level domain name, but I'm sure that since America thinks it controls every fucking thing in the universe you're correct about the threat -- surely if this were such a big deal, it wouldn't be a massive drama for countries to set up their own authorities as they had in the past, or for a global US-interference-free organisation to spring up somewhere. The lesson here is, of course, that whenever the US accuses Russia or China or any other nasty red country of doing it's only to ensure that nobody notices the US is doing it as well.
Anyway, there's a good chance that nerds being nerds, any attempts by governments/corporations/corporation-owned-governments to censor freedom of speech and information will end in a massive middle finger right up their legislative assembly. Perhaps this is the year that Americans shake off their collective apathy and get a proper revolution going.

It could be worse
