This is great news! I'd also like to see a push for technologies like DANE (and necessarily DNSSEC) which address the flawed CA trust model.
While we're at it, let's get a non-profit domain registrar going.
- kayone 12y ago> non-profit domain registrar domain squatters are already an issue. imaging if you could register domains for free. I think having to pay $10 for a year is pretty fair. That's one reason I don't mind paying ~$70 for .io domain. it keeps most squatters away.
- ademarre 12y agoYou misunderstand. Domains must not be free, and domain cost isn't the problem. Nonprofit registrar != free domains. The problem is the horrible user experience of registrars like Godaddy. I'd rather give my money to a nonprofit that isn't confusing non-technical website owners into buying products they don't need. The registrar landscape is better now with Gandi, but still I'd rather pay a fully transparent nonprofit registrar if one existed.
- kayone 12y agoSorry, I did misunderstand. Completely agree.
