ICANN revolving door: invisible whiteboard lady jumps to Afilias
In yet another shocking example of the unregulated “revolving door” between ICANN and powerful companies in the domain name industry, a blurry lady using an invisible whiteboard appears to be working for ICANN and Afilias at the same time.
Proof can be found in these screenshots, taken today from afilias.info and newgtlds.icann.org.
The photographs appear to have been digitally altered to disguise the mystery double-agent’s appearance, but it’s clearly the same woman.
ICANN:
Afilias:
Call your lawyers! Write to the Department of Commerce! We have ourselves a scandal!
UPDATE: She works for CentralNic too!!!

Some men at ICANN meetings really are assholes
Debate as accuser names “sexual harasser”
Is the .co rebid biased toward Afilias? Yeah, kinda
Touche!
hahaha. good stuff Kevin. graphic designer FAIL
btw Domaingang may be hiring
Ah, the joys of using stock photography. I’m just happy she hasn’t been seen working for someone shady. (Yet.)
Nobody shady… except for ICANN, Afilias and CentralNic.
Its called people-sharing.
While we may be more familiar with “job-sharing”, where more than one person combine to do the work of one, there are some areas of expertise that are so scarce that some companies need to resort to shared use of one person to fill multiple jobs at different companies.
Beautiful. Simply beautiful. Nice find.
Calm down guys, it’s just a stock graphic which is available for everyone who’s willing to pay a few creds for it… -.-
No, the CentralNIC one is her twin sister who is right handed.
LOL! Love it.
Dare I say, Whiteboard-gate?
Saw her on a parking page too. Probably a double agent ^^
the man on this website http://www.hrntipl.com/ is a member of her family 😉
