Domain Name Email Verification is Contact Validation, not Authentication
To comply with ICANN and European Union NIS2 requirements, gTLD domain registrars must verify registrant email addresses. This "owner email verification" process was a topic of considerable discussion prior to and during the recent ICANN meeting.
ICANN is caught in a “failing to see the forest for the trees” situation: neither the findings nor the proposals address the real registrant verification issue.
An email address verification is not proof of identity: it’s a confirmation of control of an email inbox.

It's been a while since I've found a need to do this, and I assume tools have changed a bit, so some #FediHelp would be appreciated...
What is the most accurate way to find existing #DomainNames , or more specifically, #SubDomains , where I already know the #TLD ?
#VirusTotal allows me to drill down from the main serving IP address to get to the #ASN - then reference the "Relations" tab for passive #DNS replication -BUT- I suspect the list may only be partially complete and/or 'outdated'.

AV Club: U.S. government registers “aliens.gov” domain, which is pretty good as distractions go. “Shout-out today to whichever (presumably well-stocked) portion of the Trump administration works to distract the American public from the shit all their coworkers get up to on a daily basis, because they’ve worked up a doozy this week: Officially registering—per 404 Media, and sites that track […]

⚠️ IMPORTANT for domain owners ⚠️
ICANN will have a new policy on domain ownership effective August 21st.
If your domain registration includes a company name, the company owns the domain, not you. Even if you use your first/last name AND a company, the company reigns.
So if your domain is yours and no one else’s, make sure it’s properly registered to you: leave the company name empty.
