    My mind immediately went to the band Phish… I was all excited to find a new corner of the internet about them! :) Never mind :)

      Me too. I was trying to find a connection between top and a phish song, or Vermont or something.

    The Chinese company in charge of handing out domain names ending in “.top” has been given until mid-August 2024 to show that it has put in place systems for managing phishing reports and suspending abusive domains, or else forfeit its license to sell domains.

    Seems like the problem is China, not really. top domains.

        Chinese companies work according to mandates from the party a lot of the time, there’s less separation than in the US

          In the US it tends to be the other way around 🥁

        China has problems with organized crime, especially as it relates to phishing.

    I feel bad for lemmy.top because those pages are tarnishing that domain.
