Great idea! This will save the taxpayers literally hundreds of dollars in domain registration fees! That’s over 0.0001¢ per taxpayer!!
I am pretty sure they own the .gov TDL.
IIRC there’s still an ICANN fee that has to be paid by the registrar per domain registered
Yes but, IIRC for governments that’s a flat fee per quarter regardless of the number of domains plus $0.25 per transaction, registration or de-registration.
They saved a whole dollar!
And it only cost three dollars.
That money could go to a billionaire!
Technically they own the root DNS server, so they will not be saving a single penny but spending a bunch of money for zero savings.
I might be wrong, but I seem to recall there’s an ICANN fee associated with registration as well.
Do what you can to save that information! After fascism falls, decades from now, history will have to be rebuilt from scratch.
