My point is that .io represented a state which officially has zero permanent residents, which probably shouldn't have inspired confidence in its continued existence. Yes the paperwork was outsourced to Donuts in this case, but the principle of doing your due diligence on a TLD still applies.
- mnau 2y agoMoot point. I was born in Czechoslovakia (.cs). It had whooping few thousands registered names (the biggest of decommissioned TLDs). It was later discontinued and we have .cz and .sk instead. .cs was reborn for Serbia and Montenegro and decommissioned again. Here is the moral: any domain can go away. We had millions of permanent residents and yet it went away.
- echelon 2y agoEasy fix: the ccTLD is now a gTLD.
