The admin stated they won’t be renewing the domain because .af is now controlled by the Taliban.

If you’re on the country code, you open yourself up to risk. ml has been a risk before.
Your headline is misleading though. Taliban didn’t kill it. Admin did.
Such a heinous click bait, I’m inclined to down vote the post. Definitely misleading af.
If the Taliban never got control of the .af domain in the first place. The Admin would have renew it. So the Taliban did kill it.
If the US hadn’t pulled out, the Taliban wouldn’t be in charge. So Trump killed it.
Indirectly doing things allows anyone to take the blame!
Lol did you forget who was President when we pulled out of Afghanistan?
Trump made the decision to pull out, Biden didn’t stop what had already been set in motion.
He also didn’t execute it very well
Well, they run Afghanistan and af is the country code. They picked a domain that they thought was cute, funny or clever and didn’t consider longevity or risk. It’s on them. If I make a website. I won’t pick a silly extension that won’t survive long.
That’s quite an intentionally misleading headline @hal_5700X@lemmy.world
They could get a .ck domain instead and move to queer.as.fu.ck, no?
.ck is only available as subdomains - including the hilarious, co.ck.
Wouldn’t that need them to get the
fu.ckdomain itself? I have a feeling that is already used by someone else, but there currently isn’t any website at that domain (doesn’t mean it isnt used)Worst hypothesis they just need to mess around a bit. For example I don’t think that
queerasfu.ckwould be registered.
Booooo misleading title
New domain name proposal:
Why would you want to use
.afTLD anyway?They almost certainly picked it just for the joke.
queer.af = Queer AF = Queer as fuck!
It’s like how popular the TLD of Guernsey (.gg) is with gaming websites.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t even realize what country code the TLD was when they registered it.
Same with Twitch.tv, the .tv apparently being the country code for Tuvala.
