No. They are more like the IETF than the ITU, but not quite the IETF. It's hard to describe. The origins are Berkman Center for Internet and Soceity at Harvard, and what is in existence today is a far cry from the original social desire of folks that are still there today who, based on my knowledge and perception,  have been mostly disenfranchised.  
 
But not quite a regulator.
