It is not easy for a regular person to obtain access to a .edu webpage.

  A "regular person" can: - Enroll or be hired at an eligible institution. There are literally thousands of these. - Bribe or compromise someone enrolled or hired at an eligible institution. - Create a de novo eligible institution. For-profit colleges are not uncommon. Someone motivated by profit or advantage would likely find virtually any of these options quite straightforward. I'm ... somewhat pained that this needs to be spelled out.

    > Enroll or be hired at an eligible institution. There are literally thousands of these You don’t generally get the kind of personal website being discussed to my understanding. > Bribe or compromise someone enrolled or hired at an eligible institution Finding a professor willing to stake their job and reputation for such a blatantly immoral scam seems hard. > Create a de novo eligible institution Is it actually easy for a regular person to create their own college? I find the snarky finish to your comment obnoxious.

    A "regular person" also can: - start their own country and call it Edunistan - bribe ICANN to take over the .edu TLD - open a university in the new country - spend 15 years earning a PhD at that university - reserve ~/name and start posting LLM generated content
