Built for Abuse. Sold Back as Protection.
Built for Abuse. Sold Back as Protection.
Our evidence archive tracks every registered domain across all seven ShortDot zones. It estimates roughly $12.6 million a year in wholesale registry revenue and has found zero verified legitimate businesses to date. Our assessment: these zones function almost exclusively as disposable abuse infrastructure, while companies in the same commercial orbit sell brands protection from the resulting garbage. ShortDot gets the revenue; the internet gets the landfill.
ICANN OVERSIGHT
Accreditation and RAA context
Accreditation and RAA context
ICANN Got Paid. Accountability Did Not Arrive.
For this gTLD, the registrar above operates under an ICANN contract. ICANN collects annual, variable and transaction-based fees tied to registrations, renewals and transfers.
Accreditation: monetized. Accountability: please check back later.
Then the magic starts: ICANN writes RAA §3.18, the registrar investigates abuse inside its own customer base, and victims deliver the evidence for free while every layer waits for someone else to act. If that makes victims feel safer, excellent—the invoice worked.
