This is the risk of using a third world ccTLD in your cute domain.


100% to this!

You need to read the fine print when registered a ccTLD to ensure you meet their requirements and/or don't infringe on their stipulations of use/ownership.

The .ai TLD has some rules/restrictions most may not know about. Heck, some may not even know that TLDs like .ai (Anguilla), .io (British Indian Ocean Territory), .co (Colombia) and .tv (Tuvalu) are ccTLDs.


Now it's time for the Moro Island Liberation Front to take action.
