- TZubiri 1y agoYou don't NEED to. If a TLD has a bad reputation, like TLDs that sell for less than .COM prices usually have, then you can just block users from those domains entirely. "Sorry, please use another address". Odds are you are not missing much from a user@cryptoaicompany.xyz if they couldn't spend 10$ in a decent domain.
- vasco 1y agoWrong, with large userbases you're going to lose business doing that, many real businesses using novelty TLDs, at least in the industry I'm working in now. Plus I think it should be illegal from an net neutrality perspective to treat different TLDs differently and to outright deny service.

Can't get them all. > "Plus I think it should be illegal from an net neutrality perspective " This is what you would say if your only conception of law comes from reading stuff on the internet about the internet. I don't think you've had much legal training.
- vasco 1y agoNone in fact!
- TZubiri 1y agoI think in the US they call it right to refuse service. It's not a law per-se but rather a right businesses have unless prohibited by other reasons. One such reason being discrimination of protected classes, like races, sexuality, gender. But they need to be one of the specific classes protected by law, you can discriminate against small businesses for example, that's just business.
