ICANN proposes creating .INTERNAL domain to do the same job as 192.168.x.x

A good move!
I’m surprised they didn’t codify “.lan” though since that one is so prevalent.
It's used in many cases where the machine may not be on the LAN and LAN is a technical term. "Internal" is not and to me signifies that it's "not public" aswell as probably managed by someone, well, internally at the entity you're with.
