- cedws 2y agoThey’re pretty expensive, and the nature of the service means that if they disappear, they have ownership of your domain and you have no recourse to get it back.
- nextts 2y agoIt'll be a pick one problem (secrecy, control) until say the big browsers support .bit domains directly doing a lookup on the block chain.
- duskwuff 2y agoWorse: if Njalla decides you shouldn't have a domain - for any reason whatsoever, including "we don't like your web site" - they can seize it, and you have no legal recourse. This is not a hypothetical, by the way.
- OutOfHere 2y agoIt could be useful just as a landing page to direct users to a .bit domain.
- duskwuff 2y agoYou mean the "domains" that >99% of users can't even resolve, which can't be used to send or receive email, and which you can't have SSL certificates issued for? Don't be daft.
- OutOfHere 2y agoA self-signed SSL cert could work for it. There may also exist other solutions that we are not aware of. 99% of the target users will resolve it if they want access (by installing the necessary browser extension). As for system emails, etc., they can come through any regular domain.
- mmooss 2y agoThat's the nature of 'private' domain registration used more commonly, at least to some degree for many private registrations. If you read the agreement, you are transferring your domain registration to the privacy service, and they forward stuff to you. I don't know what happens if they disappear, however.
