Yes it's theoretically possible the Swedish authorities who control .se could do something else policy wise in the future.
- hbn 5y agoGood to know. I suppose my next question is: is there any known instances of this happening in the past? I suppose regardless, if it ever actually happened, it's not like you wake up one day and lose your domain. There would probably be time to buy a new domain and point all your accounts there before your next renewal.

When the PTPB found out she talked about <GASP!>sex</GASP!> they pulled her domain. So yes, The Swedish government could revoke your domain because they're the government.
- walrus01 5y agomaybe buying a domain controlled by the "government" in a place that has two warring claimants-to-government engaged in a civil war isn't the best idea ever. if somebody were to ask "what's the least politically stable nation on earth right now?", libya would certainly rank in the top 10
- runxel 5y agoI could think of the Brexit: Britons lost the access to the .eu tld. But there was a really long sunset phase. More than two years I think? I'd sayx it is not really probable that you'd would immediately be nuked off your tld. And I also can't see the Swedes pulling this move.
