2026-08-16T19:13:23  <acidsys> hendersj: it's registered by a parking company, as is evident by whois information. of course there are both more and less shady players in this business. we could have asked the previous community member for a transfer beforehand, but we didn't. buying it off a shady company is usually not economic. it's fine, we will remove the redirect logic.
2026-08-16T19:20:19  <acidsys> ok, could also be a private person using the service, this registrar offer it as a "feature" ;) https://regtons.com/en/support/domain-features/ "The money received for clicks on advertisements are regularly added to the credit balance of the account."

2026-08-16T23:57:32  <matrix-o-o> <hendersj> acidsys: That's kinda what I was thinking it might be. Something using the SUSE name in order to appear like SUSE is promoting it. Most people would recognize that it isn't, but it seems like someone's squatting on the domain to drive ad revenue or something, potentially.
