The top line is that we now have a way to insure that any new service insures the security and the stability of the Internet.

First of all, the agreement has not threatened the security and stability of the core operations of the Internet. For users, nothing is going to change from the present situation. This is very good because untried models, which had been discussed, could have been destabilizing.

We believe there are other defendants out there.

We look forward to talking to them about it.
