    Country code TLDs (ccTLDs) [1] often have rules set by the country of origin. These rules vary widely, but some of them include country of residency requirements (you can't buy as a foreigner), ban on pornography, or strict adherence to religious requirements. Popular domain hack ccTLD .ly is required to adhere to Libyan and Islamic/Sharia Law [2] (edit because my posting is rate limited: ) There are plenty of non-ccTLDs, though, including thousands of gTLDs. You can register a .horse domain if you want, and as far as I know, there are no restrictions on use. You just need to research what you're buying.

      Yes, but singling out .com as if it were the only non ccTLD doesn't make sense.
