The Death of a TLD

Web

With all the drama about the maybe death of the .io ccTLD, I was thinking. What if something like that happened to the ccTLD I use?

I use .me, the ccTLD of Montenegro. Montenegro doesn’t care who uses their ccTLD, so a lot of blogs and other things take advantage of that. But what if they started to care. They could make the ccTLD citizens only. Or what if they just disappeared. What would happen to my domain?

Most likely, I just wouldn’t be able to renew nthp.me. That would give me some time to sort things out. I already have a spare domain that I could use, though I might go shopping.

Moving wouldn’t be that hard. This site is hosted out of a GitHub repo. I would just have to change one setting to set up the new domain and SSL cert.

Getting email set up would be a bigger pain. Not crazy, but a pain.

I hope I never have to do this. I don’t think I’ll have too. But, the owners of .io domains also though that. But that’s the risk of using a ccTLD.
