Allowing arbitrary TLD's is semantically equivalent to getting rid of TLD's (e.g. in your last example, "google" could be thought of as a TLD).

- runn1ng 14y agoI haven't thought about it that way. But when I try all the possible TLD's as a separate addresses, none works ( http://com http://com , http://org http://org , even http://xxx http://xxx or http://museum http://museum , nothing works). What is the reason... is it DNS servers that don't like this type of nslookup?
- furyofantares 14y agoI don't think it's a technical issue -- I'm pretty sure I've seen a country that hosted something at the tld itself, but I can't find it now.
- emmelaich 14y agoAre you sure its not the browser's own rules and not the lack of an actual website that address? Try ending with a period. Certainly http://dk http://dk. works. I'm sure there are others.
