Aral Balkan<a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/@zbrando" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@zbrando</a> <a href="https://appdot.net/@morrick" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@morrick</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/@ueeu" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ueeu</a> You’re not wrong.But, looking ahead, we can do so much better than the commercial domain name system.Commercial domain names are a gold standard example of artificial scarcity. A domain name registrar cost next to nothing to operate. It’s tiny rows of text in a database. It could easily be free to own your own domain name – a huge part of what constitutes identity – on the Internet.In fact, a non-commercial service has been operational for 24 years. It would be trivial to regulate that browsers in the EU implement support for it and work together with, say, <a href="https://infosec.exchange/@letsencrypt" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@letsencrypt</a> to ensure it can handle TLS.That would be an amazing addition to the commons and a future-proof way forward that we could lead on with next to no investment.<a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/domainNames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#domainNames</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/DNS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DNS</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/openNic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#openNic</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/LetsEncrypt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LetsEncrypt</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/EU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#EU</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/commons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#commons</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/internet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#internet</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/freedom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#freedom</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/ICAAN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ICAAN</a>

Aral Balkan<a href="https://eldritch.cafe/@shahaan" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@shahaan</a> Sadly, yes.Our primary expression of identity on the web is something we rent from others. Because capitalism.It should be something that’s free that we own as a human right.Very easy to implement too, if we wanted to. The EU could easily fund it. We don’t even have to build it, OpenNIC has existed for decades. We could just legislate that browsers must support it in the EU and boom.<a href="https://www.opennic.org/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.opennic.org/</a><a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/domainNames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#domainNames</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/identity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#identity</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/web" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#web</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/smallWeb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#smallWeb</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/OpenNIC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenNIC</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/eu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#eu</a> <a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/tags/commons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#commons</a>

🏳️‍⚧ melony franklin 🏳️‍⚧Are there many <a href="https://retro.social/tags/gopher" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gopher</a> holes out there in the <a href="https://retro.social/tags/opennic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#opennic</a> space?

grin<a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/@aral" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@aral</a> It's not clear to me why <a href="https://mastodon.grin.hu/tags/OpenNIC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenNIC</a> should get <a href="https://mastodon.grin.hu/tags/EU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#EU</a> monopoly amongst the few dozen (or hundreds) altroots? Also not clear how you imagine "mandatory" and where. But you probably sense in my questions that I find this approach not just futile but extremely counterproductive, too. Generally it's not wise to pick and support one service amongst of hundreds, it's called "unfair business preference".

Stéphane BortzmeyerWhat? <a href="https://mastodon.gougere.fr/tags/opennic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenNIC</a> names the name servers of .bit inside .glue so you have to forward requests for .glue to them even if you only want .bit (<a href="https://mastodon.gougere.fr/tags/namecoin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Namecoin</a>).

Marcin Cieślak<a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/@aral" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@aral</a> but what happens if the same TLD will be given away via <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/icann" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ICANN</a> and <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/opennic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenNIC</a>? <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dns</a>

maxlathso now we have HTTPS for free thank to <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/letsencrypt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#letsencrypt</a> , I wonder when the ICANN/DNS mafia will fall: GO GO <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/opennic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenNIC</a> !
