Embattled Australian Domain Authority CEO labels critics hypocrites
Embattled CEO of the Australian Domain Authority, AuDA, Cameron Broadman has labelled critics ‘hypocrites’ as the organisation battles claims it is no longer fit to regulate the nation’s internet infrastructure.
Speaking at a media conference yesterday, Broadman said the organisation had attempted to reach out to critics of its top level domain plans but had been rebuffed.
“We found ourselves in this perpetual cycle of very disappointingly around some of these people, the more we tried outreach and get them involved in what should have been a constructive, consultative process they didn’t want to be involved in there. It was a little bit hypocritical,” Broadman said.
That’s odd. I attended a public consultation forum on 6 days notice. Cameron Boardman was meant to chair the working group but he didn’t even rock up. The group was productive in his absence.
