Yeah a bit of pain, but at least you prevent some confusions, like "is it fr.microsoft or microsoft.software?" What if it happens that your company name is registered for another TLD and people start seeing it as a legit instance of your service?
What if you're a bank and somebody gets a TLD like "yourbank.bank" with valid SSL and starts fishing people from yourbank.com?
- icebraining 11y agoWhat if it happens that your company name is registered for another TLD and people start seeing it as a legit instance of your service? What happens now? It's not like there's a single domain already - there are dozens, if not hundreds of TLDs. The realistic answer is: the new TLDs don't matter, even just with .com, it's easy to get a similar enough domain that many people will fall for.
