I Have A Cunning Plan

Now that we can buy our own top level domains, let’s all band together and get .sucks or something.

This is going to be freaking chaos.

  • Yes. I’m sincerely hoping that some benevolent force takes .local before Mac users are screwed.

    Also, my super-secret-internal-domain-of-doom is now in danger of conceivably being in use in real life.

  • Think of the opportunities we’ll have for creative new phishing attacks!

  • Your not kidding.

    Lets see..

    .localhost
    .localdomain
    .local
    .1 in UTF-8
    .google
    .yahoo
    .icann’sLostIt
    .microsoft
    .exe
    .com
    .bat

    For years ICANN has fought against more root level TLDs for a good reason. Its a BAD idea.

    Yes, until they realized they could get $10,000 a piece from them…

    If I remember correctly, they can ge 64 characters long, too. No shortage of those anytime soon.

    /sigh

  • How about .not? That’s what some people have been calling a certain pervasive MS technology for a long time now.
