Why is that interesting? c.uk is a registered domain, the WHOIS for subdomains correctly states that it can't be registered.

- ars 12y agoNo, he means what do you find unusual about it. It seems like an ordinary name to me. Is it that it seems too easy to typo?

- MatthewWilkes 12y agoThe problem with c.uk. being an allowed domain is, I agree, very dodgy. This thread is about the WHOIS returning that it's not responsible for foo.c.uk. though which is absolutely what I'd expect.
- Yelwis 12y agoBecause .UK only allowed registrations at the third level for decades, i.e. example.co.uk, example.ac.uk etc. I think it's also the most-used CCTLD. Then they introduced second level domains, but they're still rarely used at present. ebay.uk and google.uk are registered, but don't do anything yet.
