ICANN is insufficiently regulated and holds an artificial monopoly. There’s no technical limitation to prevent everyone on earth having their own TLD. So yes, I am against rent-seeking when it comes to TLDs.
Facebook and Twitter identities are not artificially limited *de facto* - the services are awash in bots.
And in any case, I stated the following:

I just wish that people pushing Urbit would be honest about the project’s ultimate goals.
