I agree and would not run a stable Server for someone who enters
formal negotiations with a non-democratic nation, at least not for
free. This is, why I run a T2 after all.

But I ask myself, who besides ICANN are possible peering partners for
us, that don't think their root was created by some unproveable godness?

And if some people want to peer with us, how do they do that? Most
providers offer a direct link to a contact form on their startpage for
that purpose. Do we?

And to what would those people have to agree to? Democracy? There are
lots of shades of that.

Maybe we should try to talk to ICANN. I'd say to have them read what
we write we should first contact second tier organizations like ISOC
or present OpenNIC to the national computer science clubs
(Gesellschaft für Informatik it's here). Raise awareness and ask for help.

Greets,
Falk
