Seems whois lookup shows godaddy as their registrar. This would make me avoid them as a registrar. Namecheap in our experience also has a similar policy and simply sends an email and threatens to suspend domain in 24 hours if they have a si

This is great news. This means many won't have to look to other alternatives for certs because of potential compatibility issues with old android devices.

This is great news. I also was worried about this issue.

Another aspect is they are actually using bandwidth to max and have a cap on usage spending. No CDN I know of allows capping bandwidth usage. The way they use bandwidth means the most efficent GB/dollar cost although at the cost of poo

At the bandwidth levels they are using they would need to use Cloudflare Enterprise, and in my experience that is way more expensive than other CDN providers. Also, since archive.org has so much content, the caching ratio is going to be ver

Read my comments too. Namecheap definitely is just as bad.

Namecheap is just as bad. I run a forum site with MILLIONS of visitors and about 5,000 TB of traffic per month. Namecheap.com suddenly sent me a link warning that they will suspend my domain completely within 24 hours, if I did not delete t

Have you personally tried other methods when having an overload of server traffic? Do you have a link showing a real setup of a better method? Of note, the module is a port from the nginx tuned by alibaba which is quite a credible source. I

I don't have anything hosted on namecheap. Not even the sites DNS uses namecheap. b.t.w. hosting and DNS registration are totally different, legally and technically.

The first contact that namecheap made, was just an email that said they will suspend my domain within 24 hours if I do not respond. No matter what content the images had, that is inappropriate business behavior. The even acknowledged the th

I have actually run a domain registration/reseller business in the past, with 20,000 domains registered (which is a lot). I did not "police" a single one of those domains. Like I said below, I was NOT using namecheap DNS or h

I agree the two images were problematic, but they were mixed into millions of forum posts... Anyways, if your domain sites contents break the AUP at https://www.namecheap.com/legal/universal/universal-tos.aspx , i

I was using a third party DNS AND my own hosting/network. They threatened me on a Registrar level, which is nearly unheard of.

That is ridiculous. They threatened to suspend my domain within 24 hours if I did not delete two images. I don't even use their nameservers... They threatened to yank my domain in a registrar level which is so amateurish it shocked me.

I didn't have any problem until today with namecheap. I think you can tell a good service from a bad service when a real issue arises like today. It is ridiculous that they gave me 24 hours to delete two images or suspend my domain wit

I'm looking around right now. The registrar for reddit.com and ycombinator.com both are https://www.gandi.net/ I am considering them and a few foreign registrars right now. I still am in shock how namecheap might have
