Neil Fraser: News: .name Termination

Verisign proposed eliminating the entire third-level of the .name domain hierarchy to simplify administration, and ICANN approved the plan on 28 July 2026. The author, who registered neil.fraser.name nearly 25 years ago for his website, email, and IoT services, explains that this will delete his site, break his email, and brick connected devices despite having paid through 2040. Worse, once third-level domains are terminated, the freed second-level domain (fraser.name) could be registered by anyone, letting them hijack accounts, impersonate his email-based authentication, and seize control of linked IoT devices. Around 22,000 domain holders are affected.
