At the 82nd ICANN meeting in Seattle in March 2025, Amazon unveiled its vision for a personalized extension with its .amazon.
On our blog, Marion Carrier analyzes this innovative strategy and highlights the benefits of a well-managed digital presence https://www.afnic.fr/en/observatory-and-resources/expert-papers/amazon-and-its-personalised-internet-domain-eyes-fixed-firmly-on-the-future/
Does anyone know if there is a legitimate reason that a linux system (with postfix and dovecot on it) would try to connect this AS16876 (ICANN) IP on port TCP-443?
"2620:0:2830:200::b:9"
It doesn't appear to have a Reverse DNS entry either.

Forum software, allows for you to change domain names.
That is something Fediverse software, truly, should work on.

If you're thinking of starting a website, it would be best for you to pick a country level domain extension, as opposed to a word-based domain extension.
Corporations can be bought, sold, influenced, regulated, and shutdown, overnight. If avoiding Donald Trump's possible madness is your goal, you don't want to be back into a corner with Corporate America.

Many people, unfortunately, do not read legal documentation. It has become human nature to simply click "OK, I agree".
If more folks did read their terms of services, you would know word-based domain name extensions are not managed the same way as normal with the protection of ICANN.
As it stands now, if Donald Trump really lost his mind, he could shut down much of the Fediverse.

Gibt es Anzeichen dafür und/oder teilt Jemand der hier Lesenden meine Befürchtung, dass die Herren der Trump-Administration früher oder später auch Hand an die #ICANN legen könnten, z.B. um andere Länder zu erpressen o.Ä.?

My advise for #EU digital sovereignty project funding and subsidies:
- force ownership of #ICANN top level domains and a standalone EU hosted copy of root DNS servers
- give life to a European Public Key Certificate Authority for free certificates for everyone (a la #LetsEncrypt )
- Start a European public fork of #Mozilla #Firefox browser in pure #FOSS spirit without #ToS
Please be quick about it! #MoveMoveMove #DigitalSovereignty

That's what i try to post as much as possible. And don't think of MS as the only difficulty.
#MS #Apple #Google #Meta #Musk are all in that #clubofoligarchs ...and the headquarter of #ICANN is located in the states.
They have only started. 
Donnerstag: ICANN als Phishing-Opfer, Google-KI soll Jugendschutz verbessern
Vorsicht vor Kryptowährung "$DNS" + Google-KI zur Erkennung Minderjähriger + Google I/O im Mai mit Terminkonflikt + Apple-TV-App für Android + #heiseshow
ICANN Opfer von Phishing: Online-Konto für Kryptowährungs-Reklame missbraucht
"Die ICANN gibt dem Internet seine eigene Währung", schallte es von einem offiziellen ICANN-Konto eines Sozialen Netzes. Hinter "$DNS" stecken aber Kriminelle.
@dankefuerdenfisch Hä, klar gibt es #Satelliten die nicht von US-Firmen oder Organisation betrieben werden: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internetzugang_%C3%BCber_Satellit#Anbieter
Und genauso #Glasfaserkabel https://netzpolitik.org/2014/wo-das-internet-noch-alles-lebt/ .
Ich weiß dass im Internet viel über die USA läuft (und ja auch #ICANN dort sitzt), aber vieles ist auch schon dezentralisiert. Bin keine Informatikerin, aber dass Trump das #Internet #abschalten könnte, scheint mir übertrieben.
