Every asked me about how real world events can screw with top level internet domains.
Come for the story of how a bunch of Slovenian academics allegedly stole control of the .yu domain. Stay for why the entire .io TLD might be about to disappear due to a minor treaty between Britain and Mauritius. https://buff.ly/3zTcZyt #tech
@garius lovely piece, thanks for writing it up!
And, sorry to be „that guy“ but »On September 19, 1990, the IANA created and delegated the top-level domain .su to the USSR. Just six weeks later, the Berlin Wall fell« has a mistake: the wall fell in Nov 89, either the IANA date is wrong or it’s about the German reunification (Oct 90). 😊
