@Krafting Well, the WHOIS says
"Expires on 2027-08-05," so I don't think that's it.
It would be interesting to find out if maybe Youtube talked INWX (their registrar) into taking action against them, but it should say "clientHold" for the status if that's the case, and it doesn't.
@Oisteink@krigo666 WHOIS records are not just who owns the domain, but also list the authoritative nameservers.
For an example, pull the WHOIS record for lemmy.world, and you'll see:
nameserver: morgan.ns.cloudflare.com
nameserver: piper.ns.cloudflare.com
@Atemu I was trying to let others know what I found; when I did a quick search I saw they were asking about it.
