I recently read that the scammers themselves are often victims of human trafficking. They’re told they’ll get a high-paying tech job in Myanmar, but when they come their passports are confiscated and they’re forced to work and live in cramped offices behind barbed-wire fences. How someone sleeps...

Welcome @leonid! It's sweet we've got so many company reps on this forum.

This house is in my town and was built in the 1830s. The maximum fine under the Ontario Heritage Act is $1 million, which is chump change considering it’s in one of the wealthiest neighbourhoods in Canada. The developer is a convicted sex offender, so he’s a great guy, no doubt. Our town is home...

Reuters published an investigation showing that internal Meta documents projected about 10% of Meta’s 2024 revenue — roughly $16 billion — came from ads linked to scams or banned products. These ads included investment fraud, fake crypto platforms, illegal online casinos, and unapproved medical...

Google removing ads from parked domains is a death blow. Sucks for those trying to make an extra buck off their domain, but there were far too many bad apples in the bunch. I made a post a while back showing fake ads on Instagram that encouraged visitors to click links on parked domains. My feed...

Spaceship vs Afternic, possibly. NameCheap vs GoDaddy, no. Given PE's "if you can't beat them, buy them" mentality, do you think Spaceship will eventually be acquired by GoDaddy?

Mind sharing who you're hosting with? WHC?

Great partnership. This has more features and is cheaper than buying Business Suite directly through Proton. If anyone is considering this, Proton offers a free trial on their website.

It's a temper tantrum at this point, right?

I think he’s asking whether you would feel comfortable letting the Anguillan government et al decide the fate of a legitimate .ai domain (e.g., dn.ai). I’m saying that this is an implied risk of registering a .ai domain.

I mean, does it really matter? At the end of the day, .AI stands for Anguilla, not Artificial Intelligence. If someone isn’t comfortable with how the Anguillan government handles disputes, they probably shouldn’t be investing in an Anguillan extension.

Your honour, “Coca” and “Cola” are just words.

I feel like this is a reach. Registrars are a business. If they can't make money from the renewal, they'll try to make something from the expiry.

I've finally seen one of these extensions in the wild. Salonpas uses the domain ca.hisamitsu on their television commercials. Asked my fiancé and she thought it was a typo.

I'd be interesting to see a larger market offer Dutch auctions.
