After years in limbo, the Taliban recently began reoperating Afghanistan's .af TLD, which is breaking parts of the internet.

Do not use 2 letter country TLDs!

      I think it makes a huge difference which 2-letter country. I have a couple of .au domains, and I am not stressing about that.

        You’ll be stressing about it when the emus take power.

          On the Internet, nobody knows I’m an emu.

          Sir/Madame, I think you are confused.
          The Emus won the war… Australia has been run by an Emu shadow government since 1932.

          When the Emus finally reveal how much power they have been amassing we are going to have more to worry about than the .au TLD.

          Need I remind you that Australia produces 8% of the worlds uranium.

          There will be hell to pay when the Emu finally show themselves to the world.

        I doubt my .at domains is going under, and if so I’ll have bigger problems to worry about.
