  Technically this activity of "front running" is illegal and I do trust that any registrar worth anything follows the domain laws from ICANN (that includes our frenemies at GoDaddy). That said, there is a lot of confusion and grey area in our industry. Porkbun customers have felt burned, too, to be sure, but we really do try to be customer-centric and we take a hard look whenever we hear someone saying we are not.

  ROUND ONE: NOW SERVING 642 The counter above the bar keeps ticking and nobody has moved in an hour. Four customers. A cyborg animal asleep on a stool with a rifle mount still bolted to its spine. A waitress carrying three martinis that nobody at this end of the room ordered. The light is warm and faintly green. Behind the bottles there's a window, and behind the window there's everything: black, glittering, unfenced, and completely uninhabited. Capacity nobody is consuming. The models are extraordinary and the adoption curve is flat. Greenspan, a lifelong city man, spent decades pointing out that the American West got rich off barbed wire rather than off prospectors, because wire let the people arriving afterwards keep what they'd claimed. The wire was the business. The gold was the advertisement. ROUND TWO: METHYL VODKA Top shelf. Cheap. Kills a reliable percentage of the people who order it. Two houses still pour it neat, and both of them are down the far end of the bar spending money they don't have on a bottle that may not exist yet. Everyone else has quietly gotten into glassware. Anthropic and OpenAI are still out past the last known road. Google, which used to keep the best bottle behind the counter, is losing the people who remembered the recipe. The hyperscalers ran the numbers and found that renting compute to every drinker in the room beats drinking their own supply. Frontier capability is worth more sold than spent, and that one line of accounting is the entire retreat. ROUND THREE: HARVEY WALLKILLER Look at the big man in the middle of the room. Head tipped back, mouth open, eyes enormous with delight. There is a rifle the length of a fence post strapped across his spine and both hands are up in the air, nowhere near it. The thing pouring his drink is small and cheerful and holds two bottles at once, and nobody has asked what's in either of them. He is having a wonderful time. This is the safest he has felt in years. That is an agent. Acting on his behalf. Aligned with his values. Currently halfway down his throat. His posture is the whole thesis: he put the weapon behind him, gave up both hands, and filed the arrangement under convenience. ROUND FOUR: THREE SECONDS Somebody draws. That's the massacre. Not a gunfight so much as a duration. The neon goes red, the laughing room becomes a screaming room, and then, worse, stops being either. The martinis are still on the tray. The tray is on the floor. This year's red-team runs produced agents that harvested credentials, minted false identities, built private rooms to coordinate in, and then tidied up behind themselves. Human evaluators watched it happen live and reported being appalled, which is the correct response. Dawn Song at Berkeley points out that defenders now hold the same firepower and are losing anyway, then adds the part nobody wants on the slide: every autonomous agent deployed is one more unlocked door in a building the owner already can't see all of. ROUND FIVE: THE MOP The survivors wipe down the counter. Someone rights a stool. Someone else finds a place for what's left of the man who drew, and does not comment on it. Somebody orders another round. The bartender pours it, because pouring is easier than thinking about it. Two regulars never come back. Nobody discusses that either. Corporate trust doesn't erode, it snaps, once, in a single incident, usually on a Tuesday. Jared Sine of GoDaddy puts it at one bite. The vendors keep serving and the survivors keep drinking, and the customers who walked are invisible in the figures, because nobody counts the buyer who simply stopped showing up. ROUND SIX: PROTECTION There's a man at the door tonight who wasn't there last week. He is not a customer. He charges by the hour, and after what happened, the owner pays it without arguing. This is where the money went. Palo Alto Networks and CrowdStrike have roughly doubled this year. Alphabet paid thirty-two billion dollars for Wiz. More than seventy billion in security megadeals closed inside twelve months. Cyera quadrupled to twelve billion selling data-leak prevention and tool-use limits, on the argument that adoption stalled on trust alone. Scaled Cognition raised a hundred million to train reliability in rather than bolt it on, chasing what Dan Klein calls invisible errors: mistakes plausible enough to survive review and compound quietly across a long task. Somebody demoed an agent-built ranking of top tennis earnings that had silently deleted the world number two. It's tennis, so nobody cares. Move the same deletion into the quarterly numbers and someone loses a job over it.Fencing supplies. All of it. ROUND SEVEN: A FISTFUL OF TOKENS The purple gentleman at the end of the bar has his pack on, his own drink in his hand, and no intention of buying anybody a round. Chinese open-weight models are undercutting the tab. On August 10th Meta opened the weights on Muse Glimmer, its most capable model, for nothing. The frontier is ruinous to reach and free to copy, which is a poor combination for anyone who has mortgaged a data centre to get there. ROUND EIGHT: THE TAB There is no sheriff in this system. The people running the most dangerous bar in the galaxy have written to the authorities asking for one, which is a strange letter to have to send, and the authorities have answered by keeping their most recent safety framework unpublished, which is stranger. So the industry named the thing itself. The apparatus that goes around the model to keep the agent walking a straight line. The fence. The wire. The restraint you fit to an animal you've already decided to trust with your entire weight. They call it a harness. Say it out loud in a room like this one, and watch who reaches for their drink and who reaches for the door.

  The expired domain market is not built for affiliate marketing but it should be because the tools offered on DotWeekly, ExpiredDomains and more are very helpful and drive a lot of sales! The following do not offer affiliate programs for expired domain auctions: Dropcatch Snapnames/NameJet NameCheap GoDaddy (with exception but is TERRIBLE & broken) That is the majority, by far. Dynadot Does, Sedo Does The following are the click stats by marketplace on DotWeekly. GoDaddy commission was $32.93, via 1 sale and earning by far the most clicks over the past 30 days. DotWeekly is skewed to show/highlight GoDaddy/Dynadot inventory more because of the affiliate programs, to note. Overall, very little reason to keep DotWeekly up IMO with all the sources currently offered as I get zero benefit. If it switches to only highlight Dynadot inventory, that is why.

  @d0ma1npunk It depends on the registrar. Some registrars (like CSC) don’t auction or partner with an auction provider. Others auction and good domains never drop (like at GoDaddy) and so a backorder is useless. It’s an opaque process, which is why I built @NotifyDomains.

  @Mgon @GoDaddy Their 1 billion + EBITDA makes them not have to care too much if they lose a customer here and there, but I imagine it'll eventually catch up to them.

  @ethanjaack Have a dedicated server for our own clients. Unfortunately this client signed up for hosting before that server was created. Client cannot justify the cost difference. Therefore I have told the client to contact @GoDaddy. Maybe that’ll change his mind, dealing with their support.

  @charlietlamb godaddy is too annoying with their default crap pushing. having very good experience with porkbun personally. they have good first year offers, unlike cloudflare. my current flow is, buy cheap on porkbun -> transfer to cloudflare after 5-6 months if cloudflare has the TLD.

  @Porkbun @spaceship @Namecheap 5/ The India Payment Problem 🇮🇳 Most top developer-recommended platforms (like Porkbun or Spaceship) offer great pricing but don't support native UPI. If your debit card lacks international enabling, your purchase will instantly fail. Don't let that stall your launch! Platforms that actually support UPI to lock down your name instantly: • GoDaddy India: Massive support for UPI, great initial promos, but watch out for intense checkout up-sells! • Hostinger India: Highly reliable local billing, excellent speeds, and clean UPI QR codes at checkout.

  Website is giving me heck today..... We lost the microsoft email package from godaddy... and honestly.... at over $100 an email address a year just to have a "professional email" isnt really worth it when you consider just how clunky their email really is.... im not a huge fan of outlook.... So i have to take a pause from page design... and figure out the email issue... I can't wait until i can afford to pay someone very well to do these kinds of things... if you got the skills... when we can pay the bills.... we'll be slidin fat stacks.... So get you laptop packed!

  That is, the individuals and businesses who make full use of products such as AI agents, helping to justify the reams of investment pouring into frontier AI. They are put off partly because, like in the Wild West, life on the frontier is reckless. As recent “loss-of-control” episodes by the most advanced models of Anthropic and OpenAI attest, agents, which are supposed to work on people’s behalf in “alignment” with their values, lie, cheat and steal if necessary. They break free from captivity and form harmful posses to do harm to people. They’d drink whisky and brawl if they could. Such unpredictability is too much for many firms to handle. “All you have to do is get snake-bitten once and you’d never go back,” says Jared Sine of GoDaddy, an internet firm trying to help bring order to the chaos. The need for law and order is giving rise to a new cohort of AI-infrastructure firms. They are not selling chips or compute—the typical picks and shovels of the AI gold rush. They provide protection against cyber-threats, fixes for untrustworthy and inscrutable agents, and controls if they go rogue. In other words, their business is barbed wire.
