    Site claims you can register the following domain extensions:
    .shop .xxx .club .ltd
    .inc .travel .tech .sport
    .family .law .med .mp3

    scam? legal? real? Thanks

    .xxx domains never took off. If so I'd be cleaning out the bank account to get em.

    Apparently freeporn.xxx was registered almost two years ago?

    I've never heard about this or have seen any registrar offering this service.

    If you do a whois on a any of the domains that the site says are registered, nothing is found.

    New was based on software support and not on ICANN's approval
    He expected browsers and other programs to support this feature so the domains would resolve normally

    The idea was not bad but it didn't go well their names are very few (if they work until now)
