Most .io domains are not from the British Indian Ocean territory. Yet, many people like to use that TLD. And it's OK.

- ggm 5y agoSure. Tuvalu made good income from .tv, There's a vibrant market in ideas out there. It's just a bit odd that it existed as a grandfathered in thing, And then the grandfathering remained after the raison d'etre ended.
- 0des 5y agoHaha I love how most of the internet just agrees that tokelau is like the outcast TLD of the internet. I've seen filters alert just from accessing a .tk because of them being free and maybe still are. I think it used to be Dot.tk giving them away

- smcl 5y ago> And it's OK I agree that the use of ccTLDs by people who are not from a given country is OK - like having a .it or .me or a .tv domain as an American or a Brit etc. However the specific case of .io is, to put it politely, rather complicated.
