Do not use 2 letter country TLDs!

You say that as if every other TLD does not also have its own particularities. Do some basic research on a TLD before committing to it. For example, .cat is not for your cat pics.
Well, they literally signed up for this...
~~Not a fan of clickbait.~~

Edit: I was mistaken, my bad. I thought the article was referring to the admin deciding not to renew the queer.af domain, which was reported a few months ago.
- Care to explain how this is clickbait?
  
  the link offered me candy
  
  Because the article title suggests they specifically targeted queer.af. A better title would have been something along the lines of “taliban take control of Afghanistan’s .af tld breaking websites including queer.af”
- The title literally says exactly what happened though. You just added context that isn't there. It doesn't imply anything.
