I'm sorry, North Korea is in the UN. My mistake.

My preferred solution at this point is for the UN to take over
management of the entire Internet and for them to issue a policy of one
prefix per country. This will have all sorts of nasty downsides for
national providers and folks that care about optimal routing, but it's
the only way that I can see that will allow the Internet to continue to
operate over the long term.

What happens to non-member states? What happens to Taiwan, who has not
been a part of the UN for decades? Does the island nation of Togo get a
prefix, but not Taiwan. Also, what about North Korea? Only South Korea
is a member state in the UN.
Next thing you know, they'll be trading prefixes for kick-backs . . .
