I wonder who’ll end up buying the archive.org domain and what they’ll use it for

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago (3 children)

The archive isn't completely dead with that yet. There is still a lot of free domain stuff and private uploads on there. A lot of public records too.

And I think you can't just randomly buy a .org domain, can you? You have to be officially a nonprofit.

I remember for example couchsurfing had to change from a .org to .com when their tax exempt status was rejected by the irs and they went for profit.

You definitely can just buy a .org, I own multiple.

Horse shit. I have had several org domains, some for over 20 years now, and never been a nonprofit
