Why this is canonical

Freight brokerage is a federally defined, regulated activity (licensed freight brokers under FMCSA) and a major structural component of U.S. and global logistics. 'Brokerage' is the precise term for the intermediary function connecting shipper demand to carrier capacity. The .network TLD signals that this is the address for a multi-party brokerage network rather than a single-operator entity.
