Wikipedia has an interesting tidbit:

> In November 2019, the Public Interest Registry (PIR) was sold by its initial owner, the Internet Society, to investment firm Ethos Capital for an undisclosed amount. The PIR also announced it would abandon its non-profit status to become a B Corporation.

So, it seem like they plan to forgo their nonprofit status to became a for-profit company?

Oh my. So maybe someone's gonna get really rich from that $1 billion? Honestly it just sounds sketchier and sketchier.
