I don't remember this being the case, you could reuse your old MC purchase when they made the transition over.
the mojang to minecraft.net transition, yeah. the minecraft.net to microsoft transition, no. https://youtu.be/rUFDRAEducI

Weren’t they already doing that for years (plus using residential proxies)?
if it's cheaper than the proxies they might switch!

am i misunderstanding, or is the author saying it's better to spend $10m than $9m?
you spend that extra million to keep customers satisfied in a competitive industry. they have users trading hundreds of thousands - if there's downtime and they lose money because they weren't able to sell their positions at the right time, they might even try to sue, who knows
There are tracker ecosystems that enforce ratio, what.cd for example had developed a pretty advanced torrent economic rule set.
I know what you mean but it's not part of the protocol and I don't think you could enforce it on an internet scale

In the article they mention having a goal to apply for a gTLD to be able to setup a DNS server for compatibility with things that use traditional DNS.
Until then the domain resolver needs to either be built into the browser itself or installed by the user via a WebExtention.
then they'd have to moderate that dns server, and so your domains are no longer "unstoppable"...
Tbh it would be really cool for there to be a TLD dedicated to extremely cheap names, on the order of 0.1-10c. This could enable all kinds of fun use cases, including automated ones.
Lets say the domain is .anything, and your domain had to be at minimum 10 characters to limit the use of squatted names”. Then you could build a website for one purpose like “lets-go-get-pizza-tomorrow.anything” or whatever. Perhaps there could be a mandatory expiry or something.
xyz is a dollar to register. how much lower can you go?
How about Ethereum Name Service (ENS)?
they're just as supported as jpegxl. oh, and you need to pay rent for them as well, even though their costs are even smaller.

I am willing to take pretty much any legal risks, I don’t want to give up on my mother, regardless of how it can backfire.
I flee out of Thailand several months ago, because I was receiving some death threats, so I should be safe on that matter.
this is also a scammer.
If the general Internet was based on torrents, then the required upload ratio enforcement would have ensured bots contribute to the reliability rather than destabilize the infrastructure.
torrents don't have a required upload ratio though.
Well, they need a doctor signed key pair that shows that they are legit cripples. Feed it to the browser, win.
you joke but this is pretty much how hcaptcha handles this, no doctor needed though https://www.hcaptcha.com/accessibility
