- wodenokoto 1y agoI don't really think ownership of these top-level domains is about getting end-users to type .honda or .disney, it's more about ensuring end-users don't end up at porn.honda or naked.disney/characters
- morkalork 1y agoI can tell you there are some registrars where they sell more .xxx and .sucks domains to SMBs, defensively, than to actual porn or troll sites. I guess just flat out buying a tld is a solution to the never ending extortion racket
- Gareth321 1y agoICANN has protections in place to prevent malicious use of domains like that. They (should) prevent applications of that nature. The applicant must hold a trademark for the brand.
