For Sale Indian Government Seizes Lund.in from me...

[Akhil]

Is the Indian Registry still "hold"ing LUND.in ?

 

[italiandragon]

And what happened to Indian gambling names such as Poker.in ?

 

[Akhil]

Interestingly, the lund(.in) is still being held by the Registry even after expiry date...

 

[Theo]

The Indian officials hold their precious lund tight

 

[Gerry]

Clearly, not all ccTLDs are equally good.

...or did you mean, not equally well endowed?

Yes, frozen for eternity at registry level.
And India is not the only country that would do this.
For example, the US, I mean the land of the free, also invalidates certain domains based on the 7 dirty words rule.

Look at the whois record for f**kcensorship.us, a domain seized from a DNF member.

Looks like a case of Lund envy.

ha haa haaaa

The Indians are hanging on to Adam's lund.

After all these years, Adam must be feeling some pain. Even a little?

 

[Raider]

Let me get this straight, the people employed in the IN registry who interpret what is obscene and what is not, are suggesting they were all born using an obscene organ?

Wouldn't that make them at least 50% obscene?

Sounds more like theft than a violation of T&C.

The famous Indian sculptures of Khajuraho aren't shy about displaying it.

WTF? those cant real.

oops...didn't even see that, thread seemed so long...

um, there's a pun in there.

Wonder why they did not go after johnson? or wood?

 

[Theo]

Don't try this in India, folks.

I've always steered clear of the .in ccTLD even though India has a huge English speaking population that are connected.

After hearing about this that they can just seize domains for inappropriate content whenever they please without warning or fight, my lund is telling me not to add any to my portfolio.

Usually I always listen to my lund, and this case reinforces which organ to think with and act upon.

Neustar (.us) is not different

Neustar (.us) is not different

Don't they have .biz and .co (as a partnership) in their pocket too? Or are they just treating .US like this? :?:

I like "f**kcensorship" in .us or .com -- or any cc/g/TLD for that matter if it would make sense for a free speech site against any cause as my 10th grade project for debate class was titled "F**k Censorship" (without the *'s) about the FCC and it got an A. :blush:

That domain would certainly not fly with .cn though and the owner would probably be sentenced to life in prison.

Too bad Govt of India grabbed it

I own Lund.xxx and hope a buyer likes it.

 

[scorpio]

Adam send me details of the email you received from inregistry ..

Knw few people in NIXi and Inregistry. Will talk to them and see if they provide any solution..

 

[moreuplink]

Why they haven't blocked "Bund.in" which means Ass. It's owns by some one from Germany.

I too would be curious if there's been any other developments. Otherwise, the whois shows that the domain is in a "hold". It looks like the Indian registry placed the domain in eternal limbo -- all while retaining Adam's contact info.
