In a video recently posted by Google, a Vint Cerf cartoon explains the Internet address system and some hassles it faces.

It is a two and a half minute animated video that is an Internet Address system explainer, reports the Mashable.

Vint Cerf is an American Internet pioneer known as the father of Internet.

The video explains how U.S. is going to give up its address naming system oversight.

The international community is urging U.S. to surrender its remaining control on the Internet's naming system even after the role of the U.S. has been decreased.

Google and Cerf said that the U.S. is placing control of the domain in the hands of an international multi-stakeholder community, reports the Mashable.

Fadi Chehada, the CEO of The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers said that relinquishing control would not have much effect on the consumer.
