This ambiguously worded headline signifies that ICANN will not allow control of the .org domain to be sold to a private company. At least for now. The reasons stated include "a change from the fundamental public interest nature of PIR to an entity that is bound to serve the interests of its corporate stakeholders, and which has no meaningful plan to protect or serve the .ORG community" and "the US$360 million debt instrument forces PIR to service that debt and provide returns to its shareholders, which raises further question about how the .ORG registrants will be protected."
