Yeah I noticed this about the .US, too..us dropped
.com typos are being dropped
I doubt that.. if that is the case there will be more domains dropping. The admin email is domains@twitter.com, which is the same as the .COM. I am pretty sure that there would more domains with the same admin email. It may that the name is getting replaced. That would be my guess. And check the Registrar. Those guys are paid handsomely to take care of the corporate domains.Maybe he fired the domain guy accidentally, he did say he fired 90% of the Twitter staff!

Other twitter cctld's have dropped. These multiple-national companies can make mistakes, I'm not convinced they are purposely not renewing these names. There is someone on this forum who won an ultra premium .ca on TBR a few years ago that was mistakenly dropped by Walmart. Similar to Twitter, it was a dictionary word but also a major brand. These things happen.
It depends, I know this has happened to at least one .COM before, too. In that case it was a court order that "stopped the drop".Remember when Purolator.ca dropped to the TBR, and then the CIRA overstepped their mandate a bit by removing it (at the last minute) from the list and returning the domain to Purolator.
I guess it helps to be a Crown corporation and be able to make "that call".
Baremetal will not have to worry about it for a few months atleast now.Or they are applying the same strategy as for paying rent for their offices.
