Was there some sort of assurance that nothing was going to happen when the contract expired, and this expectation was changed? Freenom hasn’t been registering domains since Jan 1.

It’s seeming a little odd to me that this is catching people with their pants down.

That’s highly disengenous, they didn’t seize the tld, they own it. They just didn’t renew the operator’s contract.

They didn’t seize it. .ml TLD was contracted for 10 years to some Dutch dude. That contract expired on the 17th
