Altneratively: You’re spending that $12 to register a well known corporate site that just changed domains and their old domain is up for sale.
You buy the old domain, throw up a site that looks like the old site, and now you have hundreds of thousands of people using your site as though it was the real one and any information they put in the site is yours.

I don’t like this post.
I haven’t felt this targeted in some time.
I finally added at least something to puter.group. It had almost been a year.
(OH MY GOD, SO MANY MORE. This must be the ADHD thing…)
Delete this. Now.
$1/month isn’t bad though.
Just 3.3 cents per day seems pretty reasonable
Brutal. Savage. Rekt.
Buying a nice domain and it actually being used is such a good feeling
