  • I see a lot of downvotes on your comments on this thread and I wonder if it’s due to differences in nationality/geography/jurisdiction. In the USA I know we give free smartphones with working Wi-Fi to people with low incomes as a part of the lifeline program. Some of the libraries I’ve been to even have staff on hand to help low income people find out about these sorts of benefits, and even help them sign up. Maybe they don’t have this sort of program where you’re from?

    And I know most people DO carry their phones with them wherever they go these days assuming they haven’t forgotten it somewhere.

    Am I missing something? To me, in my area, these limitations would be a choice the user has made.









  • I even recall a time I negotiated back and forth on Sedo to buy a domain name, and it turned out the seller didn’t own the domain.

    I’m sorry, how is this NOT fraud?

    I agree with OP. Domains should just expire if they’re not renewed.

    And honestly, I’m against the hoarding and resale of them too. They’re a finite resource and should be limited to a fixed number per human being. And only transferred for free not resold.
