Oh my god, I did some research

They're selling emoji domains

https://xn--i-7iq.ws/ is ground zero

I strongly advise against buying one. It resolves to unreadable asdfgjkl-Hdlslfjrms.tld anyway, which entirely defeats the purpose.

Give your money to a charity instead.

Or give it to me. I will spend it on cigarettes.

shouldve been ".cum" instead

[-] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

They saddly also resolve to gibberish for me.

[-] grendel84@tiny.tilde.website 1 points 1 week ago

@Wizard_Pope oh yeah they do that for everyone. It's a safety feature called puny code.

people were using weird chars to impersonate well known domains for phishing, so if you register a domain using unusual or mixed language characters it renders it as puny code to prevent spoofing.

[-] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Yeah I know about the spoofing thing like using cyrilic letters and shit. I just thought hieroglyphs would resolve to actual hieroglyphs

[-] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Fuck it just buy one because I want gibberish domains
