I know this is a leap, but for some reason reading this made me want to buy a domain like virus.porn and make it the most wholesome, lemmy community on the planet.

    Or girlsof in stagam, which apparently has disappeared but used to be the story of the adventures of a person called Girlsof in the magical realm of Stagram.

    I remember that one too, but think it was actually called Slütsof In Stagrâm

    I like that the most expensive one is called "wildcard".

    Sounds like it's gonna perform AMAZING feats of security some of the time and just not work at all at other times.

    Kinda like the wild mage of encryption 😁

  • WILDCARD SECURITY

    It blasts the hackers off the face of the earth with orbital lasers! killer robots sever their network connection! It's twirling a revolver on its finger while smoking three cigarettes!

    And sometimes, that revolver goes off in your face, and it posts your private key on 4Chan.

    Isn't TLS/SSL something at the server level and not the domain provider level?

    You have to get a certificate from a provider which can verify you control the domain.

    Once you've proved control you install the signed certificate with the secret private key on your server.

    You can get certificates for free via Let's Encrypt and a bunch more CA's. It hasn't been expensive for ages, unless you want fancy corporate support.

    Corporate support can be a big deal.

    In a previous life, I routinely blocked anything from a free cloud host or cert provider. There was rarely a business justification for accessing a site or service hosted on DigitalOcean or signed by LetsEncrypt. Sure, get an SSL cert and host for your personal project - so I wasn't mad at the services - but it was a signal that the endpoint was not trustworthy beyond the TCP packets.

    I suspect that AWS/GCP/Azure has made that much harder.

    Nobody owns it, virus.porn is currently unregistered. $69 is the actual price on Namecheap.

    plnkman.com (what you linked, with an L) is also available to buy

    p1nkman.com is an actual page registered through Porkbun.com since 2021. Maybe this is P1nkman@lemmy.world's domain, idk.

    pinkman.com however is owned by someone through DomainsByProxy.com via GoDaddy. It's been registered since 2004, and is just parked for ad revenue.
