The plan is to keep the world at bay by never recording it in the DNS root – like many already do with a subdomain for an intranet

    Don’t we already have .local for that?

        Is 192.168.x.x not reserved for local networks? I’m pretty sure it isn’t used for public addresses. That link specifically says don’t use .local for public dns, use it for local mdns.

          You get into trouble when people spin up AD at corp.local and then it grows and grows.

          Rfc1918 defines 192.168 as internal only, yes.

    What about all the other weird TLDs that aren’t being used? Like .walmart

    I would have thought that Walmart.walmart would be a valid link but it isn’t, so what’s the point?!

      Weird TLDs shouldn’t exist to begin with. Just more evidence that ICANN doesn’t know what the hell they’re doing.

        Weird TLDs should totally exist! Just because Walmart isn’t capitalizing on it doesn’t mean that I shouldn’t be able to make hello.friends for my use.
