>The Department of Commerce is set to hand off the final vestiges of American control over the Internet to international authorities in less than two months, officials have confirmed.
>international authorities
>The move means the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority, which is responsible for interpreting numerical addresses on the Web to a readable language, will move from U.S. control to the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, a multistakeholder body based in Los Angeles that includes countries such as China and Russia.
>"We have uncovered that ICANN's Beijing office is actually located within the same building as the Cyberspace Administration of China, which is the central agency within the Chinese government's censorship regime," they wrote, noting that some of the American companies involved with the transition process have already "shown a willingness to acquiesce" to Chinese demands to aid with censorship.

Not entirely correct.
Among other things, IANA is responsible for assigning TLDs to entities that will oversee them, and updating their contact data whenever necessary. So when you want to register a page in the .su domain you can check who you need to contact to make sure it's available etc. (spoiler: for .su it's the Russian Institute for Public Networks)
