>Because amazon purchased the domain. The domain points to a specific server. It's not a TLD that acts a registry for other domains. There is a very important difference there. One you don't seem to appreciate.
There's essentially no technical difference between a TLD and a domain name. Any practical difference is extremely questionable too.
- kadendogthing 8y ago>There's essentially no technical difference between a TLD and a domain name. Yes there is. You just need to stop talking about this subject because you are very much wrong. TLDs have authoritative organizations that adhere to ICANN regulations and act as a gatekeeper to a varied and diverse set of domains under that TLD. Certain TLDs have specific purposes. Some are country codes, others are specific scopes, some others are built in from decades past.
- ryanlol 8y agoIf I am so wrong would you mind describing any of the significant technical difference between TLDs and and domain names? I would seriously appreciate it if you could share your expertise on this topic. None of the TLD nameserver configs I’ve encountered have seemed very special, in fact they’re exactly like the nameservers for normal domains.
