  1. 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 […]

  2. TorrentFreak: Anna’s Archive Loses .LI Domain As Legal Pressure Mounts. “Anna’s Archive lost its .li domain a few hours ago, likely due to legal pressure. The shadow library’s domain name was outright deleted instead of suspended. Whether the domain registrar or registry is responsible is unknown, but the latter seems more plausible. Anna’s Archive was briefly down to one remaining domain […]

  3. @MichaelRoss It appears that a Google seach (on Safari, not the app) using a single seach term and “.gov” returns at least one full screen of federal, state, and local government sites, with no “Sponsored” links. I tried it with “wildlife” and “recycle.” Using “ca.gov” turned up many screens on which all the hits were California state and local government sites. A few found embedded links, rather than the actual page URLs, which was the only way it turned up any local governments who have given up their free .gov URL for cityorcounty.org addresses. (I have no idea why any of them did that.) If the federal government changed from .gov to .us.gov, it would be easy to find their pages without a bunch of state and local pages mixed in. #SEO #SearchEngineOptimization #TLD #Top-LevelDomain #TopLevelDomains #KISS

  4. Dear fellow Canadian Mastodon-ers...

    My preferred Dot CA domain name is currently being cyber-squatted.

    Because the content is Canada specific, as will be a number of its would-be sub-domains,

    I want the Dot CA.

    Yet since I can't have it as I don't want to reward the cyber-squatter

    Please help me by suggesting alternate Top Level Domains that to most Canadians would still be kind of a Canadian TLD.

    Thank you! Eh!

  5. Würde also bedeuten, wenn die #EU jemals zu einem richtigen Staat zusammenwächst, würden 27 #TopLevelDomains aufhören zu existieren. Das wird ein Chaos.

  6. Anyone else think the :Fediverse: #Fediverse taught you a lot of #TLDs you didn't know existed? For instance (pardon the pun), I never knew .bbc, .sucks and .international were TLDs until I came across them in my timeline as Fediverse instances.

    I love how people are setting up sites and Fediverse instances with new and emerging TLDs to stand out from the usual .com, .org, .net and others. More sites should have them, especially domain hacks! :MOULE_Happy:

  7. My #Interisle colleagues and I recently submitted a response to the UK Department for Science, Innovation and Technology's consultation, Powers in Relation to UK-Related Domain Name Registries (gov.uk/government/consultation).

    The consultation seeks input on policies for mitigating domain name abuse and misuse in UK-related top-level domains (TLDs).

    We shared findings from our Phishing Landscape 2023 report (interisle.net/PhishingLandscap), and explained why policies and procedures must aim at preventing criminals from maliciously registering names _before_ they are used to perpetrate cybercrimes. We also recommend that the UK use the Council of Europe Convention on Cybercrime's definitions of harmful activities as its basis for defining prohibited uses of domain names, including facilitating multi-jurisdictional abuse mitigation and enforcement.

    Our contribution is available at interisle.net/UK_DSTI_DNS_Abus

  8. Selling some of my domain names. Just don't see me working on this projects any time soon so if some one wants to buy them and do your thing let me know.
